3 TIMES MORE WATER THAN NORMAL !! Welcome to one of Switzerland’s most breathtaking natural wonders – the Rhine Falls (Rheinfall), located near the historic town of Schaffhausen! This awe-inspiring waterfall is the largest in Europe by volume, offering a spectacular view of rushing water and stunning Swiss landscapes.

Location:
Situated near the town of Neuhausen am Rheinfall, in the canton of Schaffhausen, northern Switzerland, along the Rhine River, close to the German border.
Size and Power:
Height: 23 meters (75 feet)
Width: 150 meters (490 feet)
Water Flow: In summer, the flow rate can reach up to 600,000 liters (158,503 gallons) per second, showcasing the full power of the falls. During winter, this decreases to around 250,000 liters per second.

Geological Formation:
The Rhine Falls were formed during the last ice age, approximately 15,000 years ago. Erosion from the movement of glaciers and riverbed shifts resulted in this majestic cascade.

Key Features:
Viewing Platforms: There are several platforms that give visitors an immersive experience of the falls. The platforms get close to the roaring waters, offering stunning perspectives.
Boat Trips: Visitors can take boat tours to approach the base of the falls or to the central rock that rises amidst the torrent, providing incredible views.
Laufen Castle (Schloss Laufen): A medieval castle located on the Zürich side of the falls offers a panoramic viewpoint. It also has a visitor center and a restaurant.
Panorama Lift: A glass elevator allows visitors to descend to the lower platform near the water level.

Getting There:
By Train: Schaffhausen can be easily reached from Zürich in about 1 hour. There is a train station near the falls (Schloss Laufen am Rheinfall).
By Car: The falls are about a 40-minute drive from Zürich.
