Right next to the path there is a viewing platform with a view of the waterfall (if there is enough water to fall...).

If you don't mind a few steps, you can use this wooden bridge to get to the other bank of the Töss. Depending on the weight of your bike, you can stop briefly on the bridge and take a deep breath while looking out over the river.

There are several small barbecue areas along the Töss, this is one of the nice ones.
