Hiking

Nobody stays dry at the foot of the Krimml Waterfalls. From Kürsingerplatz, which can also be reached barrier-free, you can watch the extreme masses of water that fall about 140 meters into the valley at the lower Achenfall. The finest water droplets in the air create an impressive play of light and soothing cooling on hot summer days.

Hiking

If you are good on foot, you should take the old path (old Tauernweg) on the other side to get to the top. But is sometimes very steep and exhausting.

Hiking

With a drop of 385 meters, the Krimml Waterfalls in the Hohe Tauern National Park are the highest in Austria and are among the most impressive natural spectacles in the world. A four-kilometer hiking trail run by the ÖAV leads up along the waterfall and brings you up close to the waterfall via numerous vantage points and pulpits.
