Easy to walk. Sturdy footwear is still necessary. Roots and rocks. Certainly manageable for regular hikers. Also accessible with poles.

A small side path leads directly to the waterfall. Even when you are close, you can feel the pleasantly cool water. You can also shower right there. But be careful of the slippery stones.

A great via ferrata, close to the valley, short approach, accessible by public transport. The via ferrata is located next to the waterfall and has 2 rope bridges at another waterfall. It is very beautiful, not too difficult, and well secured throughout. 👌 Super accessible by public transport, here is my tour report: https://www.bahn-zum-berg.at/verwall/wasserfallklettersteig-im-montafon/
