Dalfazer Wasserfall, Natural waterfall in Eben am Achensee, Austria
Dalfazer Wasserfall drops vertically through limestone rock formations, creating the largest waterfall in the Rofan Mountains near Lake Achensee. The water cascades from a considerable height, forming a dominant feature of this mountain landscape.
The waterfall was long unknown as a natural destination in the mountain region. Its transformation into a popular hiking spot occurred after hiking trails and viewing platforms were developed.
The restaurant above the waterfall reflects local Tyrolean food traditions and serves regional dishes to hikers exploring the area.
The best time to visit is from spring through autumn when trails are most accessible and water flow is steady. The hike from the valley involves a moderate uphill climb, so proper footwear and fitness help make the journey easier.
A challenging climbing route runs alongside the waterfall, allowing experienced climbers to ascend the rock face while positioned next to the flowing water. This combination of natural spectacle and climbing adventure is an unusual experience in this region.
