    Hiking

    The Rhine Falls are an impressive natural spectacle, especially after the snowmelt. With a width of 150 meters and a height of 23 meters, it is the largest waterfall in Europe. In summer, up to 600,000 liters per second flow down the Rhine Falls. Its age is estimated to be around 15,000 years.

    Access to the northern bank is free. There is an entrance fee on the southern bank.

    Hiking

    On the rock trip No. 1 Yellow Line you can experience the Rhine Falls from a unique perspective.
    The ship takes you to the heart of the Rhine Falls, the mighty central rock. During a 20-minute stop there you have the opportunity to climb the more than 100 steps to the 30-meter-high viewing platform. The climb is worth it, once you reach the top you are rewarded with a unique 360-degree view of the Rhine Falls.
    On the return trip to the harbor there is another incomparable photo backdrop!
