Umbal Falls

Highlight • Waterfall

Tour is very good when it is hot and sunny: there is a lot of shade and coolness through the spray of the river. Also very good for children, as there are many play options in the hut.

June 29, 2025,Von Hinterbichl nach Clarahütte

One of my most beautiful day hikes in the mountains in recent years. Unfortunately, there are no pictures of the Clara Hut in this tour description because I accidentally pressed the end button on the tour recording shortly before the Clara Hut, and therefore can't offer any pictures of the hut or the return journey, at least not in the …

The trail starts from the Ströden paid car park (€ 6 per day). In a short time you arrive at the Falls and then continue to the Clarahütte. The path is simple and very beautiful. Follow the stream to the Baita.

This was also the second time we did this hike. It was an experience again. The Umbal Falls can be reached by everyone, even if you are not very good on foot. Definitely visit.

Our first goal was the Umbal Falls and then, depending on our fitness and the weather, maybe the Clara Hut. The Umbal Falls are very impressive and were rightly declared a natural monument …
