Tips

You drive up to a very small parking area (maybe 8 cars) and then you walk a little way past the gate and you will arrive at a viewing platform with really good views. The pictures for this highlight are from the platform and the falls are quite far in the distance. It is best to get there really early as the clouds can roll in pretty fast. You can’t actually walk up to the base of the falls, but the views are still worth it. Lastly, if the car park is full, you can park along the road, but not very far, so rather just get there early.

The hike is not possible until 31.08.2024. It is blocked by the authorities.
Nevertheless you can reach the viewpoint by car which is worth it, already.

Hiking will be possible again in autumn 2025.

Great view.

The funicular railway is a service railway for the hydroelectric power plant and is not open to the public.
