Strombodingwasserfall, Natural waterfall in Hinterstoder, Austria

Strombodingwasserfall is an eleven-metre waterfall on the upper Steyr in the Stodertal, about three kilometres from Hinterstoder's centre. It drops into the Stromboding, an epigenetic gorge cut between Steyrsberg and Kleiner Priel. At low water only the right, eastern arm carries the stream; at high water it falls in two arms.

The Stromboding waterfall was long a dangerous obstacle for timber floating on the Steyr. Anton Johann Groß mentioned it in his 1834 travel handbook, and Alexander Julius Schindler described it in 1848 in his sketchbook of Upper Austria. The 11-metre fall drops into an epigenetic gorge of the Steyr between Steyrsberg and Kleiner Priel.

The waterfall was long a dangerous obstacle for timber floating on the Steyr, and raftsmen had to bypass it. Anton Johann Groß mentioned it in his 1834 handbook for travellers through the Austrian monarchy, and Alexander Julius Schindler described it in 1848 in his sketchbook of Upper Austria.

The site is accessible via several marked hiking trails, including one from Kneipp Park in Mitterstoder. Visitors should watch for slippery rocks and water spray, especially during high water levels or wet weather.

The waterfall drops 11 metres through the Stromboding, an epigenetic gorge of the Steyr between Steyrsberg and Kleinem Priel. At low water only the right, eastern arm carries the flow; at high water the fall splits into two arms. Kayakers run it at WW 4+ in low water, above WW 6 when the river is high.
