Nice attraction in the proximity of a parking, 10-15 min walk. The place has a picnic table and a platform for a short break. It may be crowded depending on the affluence and sometimes not pleasant to wait to make a picture. However the views are too nice to bother with this. From here you can start several trails, including a trail around the cascade. The 210m elevation change offers various viewpoints of this beautiful Bas-Rhin waterfall.

A remarkable hiking experience and this beautiful cascade really made my sunny day. The 210m elevation gain provides a good workout while leading to this stunning waterfall. The natural beauty of the Bas-Rhin region truly shines here, making it worth every step of the journey. The 3.5km trail is well-marked and classified as easy difficulty, perfect for a 1h30 adventure. Despite the moderate climb, the payoff at the cascade is absolutely spectacular and rewarding.
