I just updated the geo-position for this waterfall, because it was way off the real position. Thank you Toon for reporting this issue. I also added some details and translated the info that Winfried did add already in the German language.

Oh @Winfried: Could you please check the position again if I marked it correctly on the correct side of the river? That would be awesome! :-)
