Described above is the upper waterfall, the "Rünenberger Gießen", where the water falls over a curved rock face 18 m into the depths, forming a stately tufa pyramid below, with the jet atomizing roaring and foaming depending on the water level. In winter, fascinating icicle formations are created at sub-zero temperatures. Above the waterfall is the "Löligumpi", where you could swim in the past. A little further down follows the Kleine Giessen - also with a beautiful tuff cone.

If you don't know Liestal, you can stop there and stock up on provisions or have a bite to eat in a café. A charming little town.

Ideal if you can visit the waterfall during the week. There are very nice fire pits.

Large train station with connections throughout Switzerland. Also a junction for the Baselland post bus lines. Currently under renovation, so a bit confusing. SBB timetable: www.sbb.ch Postbus timetable: www.postauto.ch
