Blauenthaler Wasserfall, Artificial waterfall in Eibenstock, Germany.

The Blauenthal Waterfall drops 30 meters down a steep granite rock face in the Erzgebirge mountains of Saxony.

The waterfall originated from a water channel built after World War I by factory owner Toelle to power turbines at his local wood grinding mill.

The transformation from industrial water source to natural attraction reflects the evolution of the Erzgebirge region from manufacturing to tourism.

Multiple hiking trails of varying difficulty levels lead to observation points that provide different views of the cascading water.

During winter months, when temperatures drop below freezing, the waterfall transforms into an ice climbing destination.
