Triefen Waterfall… Wonderful nature experience in Dienten. With a circular hiking trail, highly recommended.🍀👍🏽

... the "Triefen" near "Hinterthal" in the Hochkönig region.
- They were declared a natural monument in 2001

- The name "Triefen" refers to the rain-like curtains of drops
- Information board available (somewhat weathered)
- The Triefen is a water feature over an impermeable rock layer located about 2-3 meters above the "Urslau" River, creating a rain-like curtain of drops approximately 100 meters wide
- The special scientific significance lies in the horizontal course of the spring, which causes the water curtain over the hard conglomerate body
- In addition, the impressive spring tuff-like moss flora formed by numerous moss species, ferns, and other plant species

Note 2025
- The "former" circular trail (left and right of the "Urslau") no longer exists
- From "Hinterthal" the outward and return journey is the same
