About Todtnau Waterfall
The Todtnau Waterfall was an impressively tall waterfall deep in the Black Forest of southwestern Germany where the Stübenbächle dropped 97m.
It was also one of the easier waterfalls to visit because it only required a short and flat 15-minute walk to reach that appeared to be wheelchair accessible.
In addition to the ease of access, there were also interesting chairs that you can lie down on and stare right up at the top of the waterfall.
There was even a sheltered lookout which would be handy for taking pictures of the waterfall even in bad weather.
Although I made a very early morning visit to the falls when it was still under the shadow from the cliffs that supported it, I was able to do this short excursion without paying an entrance fee.
However, under more normal circumstances, there was a cafe and kiosk where I’d imagine there would be a fee to get in.
Given the amount of work put into this trail, this fee seemed like a reasonable thing to ask for.
Nevertheless, it was pretty straightforward to visit this waterfall along the wheelchair-accessible path.
I also noticed that there was also a short upper trail and car park that started from the top of the Todtnau Waterfall and worked its way down.
Thus, it’s possible to experience the falls from both the top and bottom in a singular excursion even though I only opted to experience the falls from the bottom.
Overall, I spent less than an hour soaking in the experience at the falls at a very leisurely pace without bothering to climb up to the top.
It was also possible to go on a longer hike from one of the neighboring towns and villages to reach the waterfall as there were many trails that joined up with the ones around here.
For some semantics, I’ve seen this waterfall referred to as the Todtnauer Waterfall.
I’ve also seen it known as the Todnau Wasserfall, Todtnau Wasserfälle, Todtnauer Wasserfall, und Todtnauer Wasserfälle auf Deutsch.
