Krimml Waterfalls
The highest waterfalls in Europe in the Hohe Tauern National Park
The Krimml Waterfalls are the highest in Europe and the fifth-highest in the world. Breathtaking, your brain might say – but holding your breath is exactly what you shouldn’t do.
Many visitors come for the fine mist, to breathe more freely.
The waterfalls are like a vast natural therapy room – surrounded by forest, rock and a never-ending cascade of water in the heart of the Hohe Tauern National Park.

Water and nature - sources of joy
Environment and nature - our future
Outdoor experiences are a playful and effective way to spark children’s interest in the environment – helping them quickly understand why nature is worth protecting.
Nature as an adventure: Nature is a giant adventure playground full of exciting discoveries – from plants and animals to the world of water – and something we need to take care of.
The environment as a learning tool: Outdoor activities are a great opportunity to talk about environmental protection and responsibility in a fun and age-appropriate way.
Resources: Help children understand how important it is to protect resources – from saving water and separating waste to making conscious choices when shopping.
Personal responsibility: Pick up litter together, take on small “environmental missions” and explain how even small actions can make a difference.
Fun and creativity: Get creative – make nature-inspired artworks or keep an environmental journal. It’s a playful way to build environmental awareness that stays with them.
