    It is impressive how much water is constantly coming down there. A great natural spectacle.

      The night lighting in particular has something mystical about it and creates a special mood.

        Best overall overview at the top of the train tracks or on the zip line.

          also recommended during the evening lighting (after sunset until 11 p.m.)

            From here you have a nice view of the Rhine Falls, the castle and the church of Laufen and the railway bridge.

                  Here you can experience the forces of nature up close.
                  Unfortunately, the entrance fee to the Rhine Falls is 5 Swiss francs. If you don't want to invest that much, you can go around the outside. It's still an experience.

                              The sublime view of the Rhine Falls will remain unforgettable for a lifetime. The roar of the water masses and the view of them is an impressive natural spectacle.

                                        From there, be sure to walk over the railway bridge to the other side to the castle and don't save the 5 CHF entrance fee - otherwise you will miss the greatest spectacle.

                                          The waterfall is particularly impressive from this side of the Rhine - and you can cross to the other side of the Rhine via a bridge.
