Staubbach Falls, Waterfall in Lauterbrunnen Valley, Switzerland.

The Staubbach Falls drops 297 meters from a hanging valley, creating a cloud-like spray as water flows down the limestone cliffs.

The waterfall gained recognition in the 18th century when surveyors first measured its height and documented its natural characteristics.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe composed the poem 'Song of the Spirits over the Waters' in 1779 after visiting the waterfall.

The observation platform near the waterfall remains open from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM daily, with optimal viewing conditions during spring snowmelt.

A metal tunnel behind the waterfall allows visitors to experience the cascading water from an internal perspective through the rock face.
