Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, visiting the same spot in 1779, declared the Staubbach Falls ‘a most wonderful thing’. The sight inspired his poem Gesang der Geister über den Wassern (Song of the Spirits over the Waters). ‘The soul of man is like water,’ he writes. ‘From heaven it comes, to heaven it goes, and again to earth…ever changing.’ He describes the flow of the falls against the sheer rockface, and the billowing clouds of spray. Schubert set this text twice, once as a solo song and once for male choir.

Glad you enjoyed the video. While the hike really isn’t worthwhile… the falls itself is beautiful. I would recommend stopping for pictures nearby.

We were there 2 weeks back end of August. The climb to the top was a wasted effort and YOU ARE NO WHERE NEAR THE BACK OF THE FALLS. You are probably 30-40 mters away from the edge of the fall and hardly any mist even. SO DONT WASTE YOUR TIME AND ENERGY CLIMBING UP. YOU WILL REALIZE IT WAS WASTED EFFORT.

LOL. I think that you have missed the point. Maybe this will keep the masses of tourists away. Thanks for that. :)
