Triberg Waterfalls

Highlight • Waterfall

The highest waterfall in Germany! In the middle of nature, but still right next to the center of Triberg, the amounts of water plunge over 163 meters. However, word has already got around outside the town limits that there is something to see here. Therefore, I recommend coming in the evening or earlier in the morning when it is less busy.

Admission: 8 euros. With the guest card from the site, entry is even free.

Neither the highest waterfall nor the longest cascade, and not as rustic as the Zweribach waterfalls. €8 is a steep price. The almost tame squirrels are cute.

We're currently traveling in our motorhome in the Black Forest. Today we took advantage of the beautiful weather for a short hike to the Triberg Waterfalls. With a total drop of 163 meters, the falls are among the highest in Germany.

On the first day of the short vacation we went to the Triberg waterfalls. We started from the "Adelheid" car park in Schönwald. The first stretch is a bit steep down until you reach the first ticket booth. 8€ entry (applies to the waterfalls + the Black Forest Museum in Triberg) and you should keep the ticket well, as you …

Today's tourist itinerary is full:
In Triberg, Germany's highest waterfalls can be admired 😍 and that, of course, is part of any "Germany in 3 Days Bus Tour." 😆 triberg.de/index.php?id=551&ved=2ahUKEwiqndzM4_ONAxVPQvEDHU-vAf4QgU96BAgPEAQ

At 10 a.m., despite the perfect weather, there was still plenty of space.

When it's raining everywhere, a huge waterfall is the best place to be :) Greetings from Triberg!
PS It's a shame that you can't at least add a video of the power and sound of this waterfall today.

Today we had to do one of those touristy things while we were here 😄 We'd heard a lot about the waterfall and, of course, wanted to see it. It's a beautiful waterfall and large, but there were a lot of people around 😕, so we walked a bit further along the nature trail, where there were fewer people. But …

The entrance to the waterfall (€8) from the upper car park (€1.50 per hour) was good, as this car park is less frequented. In the town below, the Black Forest cliché is fully realized and you can find all kinds of souvenirs.

Always worth a visit.
Paved paths also suitable for prams.
Unfortunately, not all paths could be walked due to tree felling work, but one of the nice ladies at the entrance booths immediately suggested an alternative to us.
Then definitely visit the Black Forest Museum 👍
