View of Partschins Waterfall

Highlight • Viewpoint

The ascent from Rabland to the waterfall is arduous but a "must". As a conclusion, the restaurant is good and cheap. :-)

August 7, 2025,↗️ Partschinser Höhenweg ➡️ Partschinser Wasserfall ☀️⛰️💦⛰️
We then continued along the beautiful and rustic Partschins Waalweg (Waal Path), some of which were quite steep and rocky, up to the high-altitude trail. From there, we continued along narrow paths with magnificent views toward the Partschins Waterfall 💦, which, with a drop of 97 meters, is truly impressive 😃
We were almost alone on the wonderful high-altitude trail …

The Partschinser Waal is a lovely walk. The high-altitude trail of the same name is narrow in places and has a lot of elevation gain, but is still easy to do. Above all, the number of hikers was very manageable, which may also have been due to the weather. The descent to the waterfall leads through beautiful forest paths. There …

“Our life is what our thoughts make it.” - Marcus Aurelius
It couldn't be more aptly formulated than this quote, which we came across below the waterfall we hiked to. This is our first time on holiday in South Tyrol and after the first few meters it's clear - we'll be back. 🤩🇮🇹
The Partschinser Waalweg is simply fun - …

The first half of the tour is very steep. At times, the route is exposed to the sun on steep slopes. The path is very narrow in places.
Not recommended with children, or only with safety equipment.

Today we hiked the Partschinser Runde via Waalweg, waterfall and Höhenweg.
Komoot had recorded the whole route, only the length of the route is wrong, it was about 14km

I followed this tour by @Kauai straight away. The bad news: That was probably the highlight of the holiday and will hardly be topped.
It was really fantastic and the weather held up - contrary to the forecast. And after the return trip to the main road was also successful, you could definitely say that the trip was a success …

>>Wonderful panorama of the Meraner Land and the opposite mountain ranges.

Idyllic high forest hike on the Partschinser Sonnenberg with the most beautiful views of the Merano Basin.

Rating: unfortunately awesome
Recommendation: hike it
The snow melt and the rain in May led to the impressive pictures and 2 videos of the waterfall.
