Krimml Waterfall, Austria

The Krimml Waterfalls have a total height of 380 meters in three stages, the Krimml Waterfalls are the highest waterfalls in Europe and a unique natural wonder! The Krimml River is the source of the Krimml Waterfalls. It begins at the end of the Krimml River Valley and flows through gentle pastures before it plunges down the mighty steps as a subglacial stream. It is a 10-minute walk on the paved path installed by the Austrian Alpine Association from the Water WonderWorld to the lowest waterfall. The waterfall path takes you to the highest waterfall (approx. 1-hour walk) and offers spectacular views of the thundering water masses.
