There is a new route, if you come from the west it's not that clear. Take the left path behind the recycling center.

A wildly romantic ravine that was closed for a long time due to a landslide and is now open to the public again. Wild chamois live in the ravine and I was able to observe them.

The path down the ravine is no longer maintained, so it is a little difficult but can be walked on with sure-footedness. The waterfall can only be reached from above.

The ravine is beautiful, the waterfall not so great. It's very difficult to see and you can't get to it from below.
