O
Rýchle fakty: Chodník sleduje kanál z topiaceho sa ľadovca Bossons a klesá o viac ako 800 výškových metrov cez alpský les. Turisti môžu počuť, ako ľadovec vŕzga a stoná pri pomalom pohybe, pričom kusy ľadu sa občas odlamujú do rieky dole.
Zaujímavosti: Pri päte vodopádu voda naráža s takou silou, že zem sa vám doslova trasie pod nohami a hmla vás môže namočiť aj zo 50 metrov. Hukot je taký intenzívny, že musíte kričať, aby vás bolo počuť, a máte pocit, akoby ste stáli uprostred búrky.
Insiderské tipy
- 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.
