Peace Reflection Point – Sculpture of Reaching Hands
Highlight • Monument
The peaceful natural surroundings, the sound of the water, and the chirping of birds create a meditative atmosphere that invites contemplation. Two sculptures holding hands were donated by the parish of St. Peter and symbolize the worldwide desire for peace. Holy Scripture speaks to this through a passage from the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:9): "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God."

Second Reinbach Waterfall
Highlight • Waterfall
The waterfall plunges here with great force, and the spray from the waterfall provides a refreshing coolness. The rocks over which the water cascades are covered in moss and plants, giving the place an almost mystical atmosphere.
From the viewpoint, you have a breathtaking view of the waterfall and the surrounding nature. The sound of the rushing water is clearly audible and accompanies you throughout the entire hike. The second waterfall is not only a visual but also an acoustic highlight of the hike. It is the perfect place to pause and experience the impressive power of nature.

Stone Steps Trail to the Reinbach Waterfalls
Highlight • Trail
The sound of the waterfalls accompanies you throughout the entire trail, and the chirping of birds provides a pleasant, soothing soundscape.
The final section after the bridge at the third waterfall becomes steeper and more challenging. Here, the trail leads through a particularly narrow passage where the steps are slightly higher and the climb is clearly noticeable. This section requires more stamina, but is worth the effort for the view of the St. Francis and Clare Chapel, the final destination of the hike.
The trail offers repeated breathtaking views, and the sound of the water and the quiet, moss-covered stones create a tranquil, almost meditative atmosphere.

View of the First Reinbach Waterfall
Highlight (Segment) • Waterfall
At the waterfall itself, there is a viewing point from which you can enjoy the cascading water and the surrounding nature. Particularly noteworthy is the "Sister Water" contemplation point, a modern representation of the Sacred Heart of Jesus that reminds us of the spiritual significance of water.
This section of the hike is easy, also suitable for families, and offers a first impressive glimpse of the power of the Reinbach Waterfalls.

Our tour begins at the parking lot, where comfortable wooden loungers and a small playground invite you to linger. Immediately afterward, we enter a fairytale forest – moss-covered stones, large boulders, and enchanted ravines give the trail a mystical atmosphere, almost like something out of Lord of the Rings.
