The view of the waterfall is worthwhile. You can see the waterfall very well.

From here you have a good view of the whole waterfall and down into the gorge

The viewing platform is super easy to reach if you start the tour at the parking lot at the information center.
It is definitely the best view with railings of the lower large and intoxicating waterfall and of the two easy via ferratas on the other side of the stream.
From here you can watch hikers walking along the abyss at the upper part of the waterfall and continuing behind the waterfall.

The only easy descent to the base of the falls is at the lookout point.
If you are brave and have a head for heights or if you have your via ferrata set with you, you can walk along the stream and past the foot of the waterfall and come to a secured rock barrier that you can climb up and come out behind the waterfall. (I have attached a map of the route and a few pictures of the rock step to help you decide)
I walked it without safety, but not so brave and safety-conscious walkers have to put on a via ferrata kit or pass in front of the rock barrier and climb back up to the lookout point to take a larger detour up to the head of the waterfall and behind the waterfall.

These two great third-party videos will help you assess the tour and whether you should go with/without a via ferrata set (many thanks to the producers for sharing)
