    The water falls about 400 meters deep. About halfway up you can walk behind the water on a footbridge. The view of the grand hotel from several vantage points is fascinating.

      The impressive roar of the Giessbach Falls is omnipresent on the circular hiking trail from the Grandhotel Giessbach.

        Part of the ascent can be covered by funicular. The cascades overcome 400 meters of altitude and are illuminated at night

            Beautiful waterfall, which you can walk past in the back.

                The circular hike Iseltwald
                - Giessbachfall - Iseltwald was very nice. It offers nice rest/barbecue areas to linger. Also well suited for families and groups.

                                                Incredible 400m drop and 14 waterfalls.
                                                You should go on a day after it has rained preferably.

                                                  Most people talk about the "Giessbach Falls" and they just think there are two or three. In reality, there are 14 (!) cascades of the Giessbach that plunge into the depths or towards Lake Brienz. A worthwhile destination, especially in the summer months when the boats travel on the lake and access from the water is guaranteed!
