Hintertux Waterfalls
Schleierfall · Tuxer Wasserfälle
A waterfall hike at the foot of the Hintertux Glacier, where the delicate Veil Falls often show a rainbow on sunny days.
Starting from the base of the Hintertux Glacier cable car, the waterfall trail passes several waterfalls fed by glacial meltwater. The tallest, the Schleierfall, or Veil Falls, is about 50 meters high, and its mist is as fine as a veil. The round trip takes about two hours on an ordinary mountain path, with some steep sections. It can be combined with a glacier visit or the Spannagel Cave on the same day. In the village of Hintertux, a natural hot spring outdoor pool offers a place to relax.
