Suspension Stairway

Highlight • Bridge

Something completely different! Not a suspension bridge, but a suspended staircase! Depending on how many people are on it, the stairs swing quite a bit!

Stuiben Power Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

A steep climb to the top of the waterfall. If you want to climb up there, you should have a head for heights. The lattice steps and the shaky bridge take some getting used to.

Great hiking construction up to the Stuibenfall. At the top you will be rewarded with a great suspension bridge and viewing platform.

Certainly not a mistake: pack a change of clothes - those who brave the waterfall will be rewarded with a refreshing shower.

Terrific - the Stuibenfall near Umhausen, the largest waterfall in Tyrol - an impressive natural spectacle 🌊 . It was a very special experience, including the ascent over the "hanging bridge".

August 7, 2023,Stuibenfall Umhausen... Rundwanderung über Wiesele Alm

A highly recommended round. The Stuibenfall is a must if you are on holiday in the Ötztal. Tyrol's largest waterfall. 700 steps up the waterfall. The round continued via Niederthai in the direction of the Wiesele Alm, which unfortunately was closed today. Through the forest with beautiful rock formations we went back to Umhausen.

The stop at the Wiesle Alm was a bit like Heidi 😍 I can only recommend the tour.
