Tour of the Krimml Waterfalls - a must-see natural wonder

Water represents life, power and time. No photo can convey the beauty of a bubbling stream, the sound, the glow or the pure fragrance of water. You have to see this wonder of nature for yourself. The Krimml Waterfalls are located 120 kilometres from Salzburg in the Hohe Tauern National Park.

With a drop of more than 390 meters between the three rapids, the Krimml Falls are the largest in Austria and the fifth largest in Europe. From its source at 3,000 meters, the waterfall cascades into the Krimml Valley, feeding the Salzach River with its crystal-clear waters.

The drive to the waterfalls from Salzburg takes about 2,5 hours one way. Most of the way takes you through beautiful mountain scenery with peaceful villages and green pastures. There is much to show and tell. We can stop at any nice place for a cup of coffee. We will also have a delicious lunch in a small village. Arriving at the waterfall, we will hike and depending on your ability and wishes, I will choose the best route.

The route to the Krimml Waterfalls is pretty long, so the whole tour takes more than 8 hours. If you have enough time, I recommend a two-day tour of the Hohe Tauern National Park, visiting the Grossglockner High Alpine Road, the towns of Zell am See and Heiligenblut, gorges and caves. We stay overnight in an affordable mountain guesthouse with a delicious breakfast. 

 I will send you details of the tour and a quote as soon as I receive your inquiry.
