Spectacular Umbal Waterfalls at Hohe Tauern National Park are one of East Tirol’s most spectacular natural sights. Tumbling over cliffs and down steep-sided gorges, the spectacular waterfalls drop in a series of pretty cascades. Learn about the force of nature and watch the water as it pours over mossy rock faces, fuzzed with foliage, into natural plunge pools at new Natur-Kraft-Weg (literally, Nature-Force-Trail), Europe’s first interpretive Waterfalls Walk. Views of the waterfalls will be revealed along the circular trail from seven viewing points with interesting information panels. The platforms are very close to the rushing water. The Waterfalls Walk is an easy hike the entire family will enjoy and takes about one hour to complete.
