    The breathtaking force of nature is impressive. I somehow pictured the Rhine in Western Europe, flowing into its riverbed and radiating energy, just like here at the Rhine Falls. What would Europe be without Father Rhine? And of course, there are such wonderful stretches for us cyclists that we all enjoy so much.

      Impressive view of the Rhine Falls. Even if it is not very high, you can literally feel the tremendous energy it emits.

      Here is an excerpt from Wikipedia:

      The Rhine Falls has a height of 23 meters and a width of 150 meters. The Kolk in the impact zone has a depth of 13 meters. In the middle of the Rhine, 373 cubic meters of water per second fall over the rocks in the Rhine Falls (average summer runoff: about 600 m³ / s). The highest discharge was measured in 1965 with 1250 cubic meters, the lowest outflow in 1921 with 95 cubic meters per second. Also in the years 1880, 1913 and 1953, the runoff was similarly low.

        Very impressive waterfall 🌊👍! There are many different inspection and vantage points, "exhilarating" beautiful 🙂
        We had pretty cool rainy weather in May 2023 and fortunately very good weather protection clothing 🙃. It was a bombastic beautiful experience at the start of our Rhine bike tour 2023 👌
