The path leads with slight inclines over partly natural trails and beautiful views to the waterfall. The waterfall offers a magnificent natural spectacle.
Author’s recommendation
The relatively steep ascent on the Burgbachelsen to the shelter is worth it, a wonderful view rewards you.

From the hiking parking lot "Vor Burgbach" we walk over the Wolf, then immediately turn right at the "Burgbachbrücke" location. The path gently ascends and at the next fork goes straight through a small forest to the "Moosgrund" location. On the forest road, we go left uphill to the junction named "Am Schrofen." Here we take the path to the left and arrive at the "Burgbachwasserfall" location. The last few meters to the natural spectacle are reached via a stone staircase. The return path leads again over the stone staircase to the "Burgbachwasserfall" and descends right to the paved road, which we follow left back to the starting point.
