Brankovský vodopád sa nachádza na západnom okraji Nízkych Tatier prí ústí do Revúckej doliny. Výškou 55 m je najvyšším vodopádom v Nízkych Tatrách. Vodopád bol vytvorený prepadom horského potôčika na vápencovom skalnom stupni, ktorý je výrazne viditeľný. Jeho prietok je relatívne stabilný, približne 3 l/s. Vodnatosť toku je však ovplyvnená výdatnosťou zrážok v jednotlivých ročných obdobiach. Povrch skalnej steny vodopádu je mierne členitý, čo vytvára mnoho menších plošiniek (tzv. políc) a kaskád. V roku 1980 bol vyhlásený za národnú prírodnú pamiatku.
