Stuibenfall, Tallest waterfall in Tirol, Umhausen, Austria.
The Horlachbach brook creates a 159-meter-high waterfall that cascades in two stages with a flow volume between 600 and 2000 liters per second.
Local records indicate the waterfall has shaped the development of Umhausen village, influencing settlement patterns and agricultural practices in the Ötztal region.
The Wednesday night illuminations of the waterfall represent a regional tradition that brings residents and visitors together for guided lantern walks.
The waterfall trail includes 700 steps across multiple viewing platforms and an 80-meter suspension bridge, requiring approximately 30 minutes to reach from the parking area.
Water crystals from the falls create clouds of mist containing ions that scientific studies have shown to enhance physical well-being.
