Today’s feature: The Krimml Waterfalls

Our first excursion takes you to one of the most impressive natural highlights in SalzburgerLand: the Krimml Waterfalls.

Just about 25 minutes from Gut Sonnberghof, you’ll discover a nature experience unlike any other.
With a total drop of 380 meters, they are among the highest waterfalls in Europe—a true highlight for any nature holiday in Austria.

As you approach, you’ll hear the powerful roar.
Then you’ll see the fine mist rising into the air.
And suddenly, you’re right there—surrounded by pure, untamed nature.

For Relaxation & Adventure – An Experience for Everyone

What makes this place so special is its versatility:
You can experience it exactly the way that suits you best.

For a relaxing escape, a gentle walk to the lower waterfall is all it takes.
Breathe in the crisp, cool mountain air, feel the fine water droplets on your skin, and simply enjoy the moment—almost like a natural spa experience in the heart of nature.

If you’re feeling more active, follow the well-maintained waterfall trail further up.
With every step, new perspectives unfold—spectacular views and that unique sense of freedom you can only find in the mountains.

Nature That Truly Restores

The surroundings of the Krimml Waterfalls are not only breathtakingly beautiful, but also deeply revitalizing.
The air is exceptionally pure and enriched with micro-fine water droplets—many visitors find their time here especially refreshing and invigorating.

A place that strengthens both body and mind—perfect for a true wellness retreat in the Alps.
