Tips from the Community

After 32 francs (37€) entrance fee for 3 adults and 1 child, I expected more than a viewing platform under the bridges and a gallery about 80 meters along the rock face. I had hoped one could get down to the water. Unfortunately, no luck. You shouldn't expect anything "Klamm-like" here. My tip: Invest the money in drinks at the visitor center and sit comfortably on the small terrace outside... in my opinion, you'll get more for your money there.

I have to because of the entrance fee. But I don't think it's necessary. The staff is friendly, though.

Easy to ride, but quite narrow, requiring caution in some places. There are several blind bends.

Fantastic trail. Only a 20 meter section requires attention and it is better to get off and push.
