Combine the natural experience of the Günstner waterfall with a short hike!
With a drop of 65 meters, the Günstner Wasserfall is the highest waterfall in Styria! 250-300 liters of water per second fall over primary rocks in three impressive cascades into the valley basin! Combined with the small waterfall circuit, it's an "exhilarating" experience for the whole family.
