Unfortunately, the Walcher Grundalm was not managed at the time we were there. It doesn't look like that will change in the near future, but kindly there are self-service drinks here. After the very long and steep climb, this is really a highlight. The view is also very nice.

Cave Behind the Waterfall

Highlight • Cave

A small cave behind the waterfall offers a magnificent view through the waterfall into the valley below. A steep path with a via ferrata (secured by a wire rope) leads there.

July 31, 2025,🇦🇹 Hinterm Wasserfall gehts weiter - Walcher Hochalm-Runde

Nice varied tour! Behind the waterfall are benches to enjoy! You should note that there are cows on the path that you cannot avoid, but it is difficult with dogs.

July 28, 2024,Wanderung 28.07.24 Vater - Sohn Tour ⛰️🍀🥵

Today was a challenging hike ⛰️, in slightly rainy and very humid weather. We parked the 🚗 at the toll booth for the Grossglockner Panorama Road.
