In the winter realm of waterfalls

The Krimml Waterfalls are not only an impressive natural spectacle in summer. Due to their shady location, only a few sun rays reach the waterfalls, creating beautiful ice formations when temperatures are appropriate.

The tour begins at the tourism office in Krimml, where participants receive snowshoes or crampons from the national park ranger, depending on the snow conditions. After a few hundred meters, the snowshoes are put on, and the regular hiking trail is left behind – we are now on fields and meadows dressed in their winter attire. Gently ascending, we reach spots that offer a view of Krimml and the Kitzbühel Alps. Shortly thereafter, we arrive at the wintery waterfalls. After a short break, the tour continues along snowy paths and through wintery roads until we return to the starting point of the hike.

If there is insufficient snow cover, the tour will be conducted as a winter hike.
