Σχετικά

Γρήγορα στοιχεία: The trail follows the Bossons Glacier's meltwater channel, descending over 800 vertical meters through alpine forest. Hikers can hear the glacier creaking and groaning as it slowly moves, with chunks of ice occasionally calving into the river below.

Αξιοσημείωτα: At the waterfall's base, the water crashes down with such force that the ground literally trembles beneath your feet, and the mist can soak you from 50 meters away. The roar is so intense you have to shout to be heard, making it feel like standing inside a thunderstorm.

Εσωτερικές συμβουλές

  • Wear waterproof shoes and a rain jacket: the mist from the falls can soak you from 50 meters away even on a sunny day.
  • Bring binoculars to spot climbers on the Bossons Glacier above the falls, a popular training ground for aspiring mountaineers.
  • Visit after a few days of hot weather for the most dramatic water flow, as the glacier releases more meltwater.
  • Skip the main viewing platform and follow the trail 100 meters further downstream for a quieter picnic spot with a full view of the cascade.
