The upper waterfall of the Engstligen Falls is located directly on the hiking trail from the valley station to the mountain station of the Engstligenalp cable car. It can also be visited from above with a short detour. It is very beautiful, cool and humid in its vicinity. 👌🏻😊

🚗 The starting point is the Engstligenbahn car park in Adelboden. The car park is free and offers enough space for cars. Alternatively, you can take the bus to the "Adelboden, Unter dem Birg" stop.🚶‍♂️The hike to the upper waterfall of the Engstligen Falls is moderately difficult and takes about 1 to 1.5 hours each way. Start the hike directly at the Engstligenbahn car park. Follow the signs towards the Engstligen Falls. The path leads you along the Engstligenbach stream and offers impressive views even in the first few kilometers. 🥾First you reach the lower waterfall, which already offers a spectacular natural spectacle. You can take a short break here before tackling the climb to the upper waterfall.
🏔 The path to the upper waterfall is steep, but doable. It leads you through rocks until you finally reach the upper waterfall. Here the water plunges impressively into the depths 📸
