My husband and I came out here early Feb, but it was still beautiful. We parked in the free lots close to the start of the trail - we turned right off the main road right at the Wasserfall train stop. The fall was not frozen, but flowing around still-green moss and plants. As others has said, it's an easy trek up to the top of the falls with good shoes and the view is beautiful. Took us about an hour in and back as we took our time, took pics, and stopped a lot. At the top in the summer there appears to be biergartens and perhaps an event station, many other trail heads as well. Unfortunately the bathrooms were locked at the top, but I can image this would be a beautiful place to see in the spring. There was a surprising amount of people here for a wintery Sunday. The sun came out for a sec, enough time to view the castle ruins on the opposite mountain and the green valleys. After leaving, keep heading south to the town of Bad Urach, there is a museum (open on Sundays) and a very cute town with restaurants open. We will be going back for sure to hike up to the ruins and the other trails, it is very extensive!
Der schön anzusehende Wasserfall befindet sich am Stadtrand von Bad Urach im Maisental. Hier stürzt der Brühlbach 37m in die Tiefe und noch weitere 50m über steil abfallendes moosbewachsenes Kalktuffgestein. Die Wasserausschüttung der Quelle beträgt zwischen 70 Liter ( Sommer ) und bis über 400 Literpro Sekunde nach starkem Regen. Die Fälle sind über einen, meist schattigen, weg leicht zu erreichen.
Nice, easy walk on a path that is right next to a beautiful and clear stream. Many miny waterfalls and cascades. Absolutely stunning waterfall! It is pet friendly as well, but make sure you have pet on a leash. Well worth the 15min walk. There are many benches along the way to sit and enjoy the views or as we did, have a picnic lunch. There was no fee to see the falls, but there was a minimal fee to park.
Bei unserer Wandertour um Bad Urach musste natürlich ein Abstecher zum Uracher Wasserfall sein. Ein wirklich schönes Fleckchen am Rande der Schwäbischen Alb. Wobei uns persönlich die in der Nähe liegenden Gütersteiner Wasserfälle noch einen Tick besser gefallen haben.
I recently went for a trekking tour in Bad Urach. The route included of course the waterfall. To reach it you just have to follow a path along the stream for about 15-20 minutes. Though very narrow the waterfall makes quite an impression and stands up in the surrounding green. Very cleverly along the way one can find benches to just sit and enjoy the view. And up there, and the top of the waterfall there are plenty of desks for those who want to take their breath or have a snack.However the waterfall itself wasn't enough for me, our tour took us from the waterfall to the ruins of the old castle and then back to the parking place.A great Saturday!
A wonderful way to relax, walking to the falls and along the trails in the area. Truly beautiful scenic area, worth visiting. It is good for all ages. The main trail to the falls follows a lovely stream. Visit Bad Urach later for ice cream!
Just 20 minutes up -- more if you take photos, which is pretty inevitable -- and one is rewarded with a beautiful cascading waterfall. Easy to find just off the main route with ample parking and well-marked trails.
A wonderful less-famous waterfall, in a beautiful valley. About 2 hours roundtrip.The trail goes along a stream of water which later becomes the waterfall.What we found special about this fall (by means of water scene) is the fact that the main waterfall is not stuck tight to the cliff but is rather "loose" in the air. Apart from the main fall there are other few little cascades. All in all it looks very watery and lush.Highly recommended.At the head of the falls there seemed to be a food/snacks stall which was close when we arrived (in the very late afternoon), maybe during the day it's open.
If you get in Bad Urach should not miss one of the main attractions of the area, the waterfall. Easily accessible, located only 1.5 km from the last parking. The road leading to it is arranged and well marked. You can climb the stairs leading to near waterfall with a drop of 37 m. Vzitatorul tired can rest on benches telltale along the way. I recommend it.
This hike is pretty short if you just do the waterfall, less than an hour, but after that there are lots of trails, including one to the castle, so you can hike as long as you want. I hiked up to the falls, then up the back of the falls to the top, and then around to the castle, the whole trip took about 3 hours. The waterfall is easy to get to, just get off at the Wasserfall train stop and literally walk straight down the road and you'll find the trail head. I went on a Saturday and the trail was pretty packed, especially with families with small children and strollers, so this is a suitable spot to bring the kids. There is a bathroom and snack stand at the top of the waterfall.
