1. Rhine Falls
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 3,383 reviews
The Rhine Falls, the biggest waterfall in Europe, offer the visitors a spectacular sight! 17,000 years ago this impressive wonder of nature was formed and is now the main attraction for countless visitors from all over the world. Over a width of 150 metres and a height of 23 metres, an average of 700,000 litres of water cascade over the rocks every second. A boat ride to the famous rock in the middle of the Falls and the short walk to the top, is an unforgettable experience for every visitor.

Getting to the Rhine fall from Zurich was an easy train ride... beautiful country scenery along the way ... the falls is spectacular... the best way to experience the falls is to take the boat ride to the base of the falls and feel the power and the water spray of the falls Highly recommended to anyone visiting the area

We visited Schaffhausen on Saturday morning following a trip to Rheinfalls which I highly recommend. Schaffhausen is beautiful. It has everything from clothing stores to restaurants and historic sites. We approached the Munot steps and I was very thankful that we decided not to bring a stroller as this is not stroller friendly at all. You walk up many, many steps among the grape vines. Once we reached the top, we were thrilled to find out that you could walk to the very very top and inside without and admission fee. After ascending all those steps it was a welcome reprieve to go inside the cave like area. It was neat and cool inside, which helped since it was warm outside. You continue to walk up the stones circular style staircase to the open part. There are plenty of places to sit and take photos. There are some neat canons that my children enjoyed climbing on. There are also restrooms which was very nice. We heard through passing that you can rent the apartment on the top of the Munot which would be a neat experience. Overall we enjoyed our time. My only warning is to be careful, the rocked walkway could become very slippery if the weather outside was rainy. It overlooked the river and the city. A beautiful and FREE experience.

This is a PERFECT day trip from Zurich. I took the train from Zurich to Konstanz, enjoyed a coffee and a brief walk around downtown, did a little shopping (got some cute, felted house slippers that are great here in Alaska), watched Imperia circle around for awhile at the harbor entrance and then caught this cruise, which included a wonderful lunch. They stopped a couple times letting people on and off and it was exciting going under the low bridge. Lunch was delicious! The German's definitely invented "comfort food"! It was a cold, rainy autumn day and that macaroni and cheese over potatoes with crushed fried onions on top really hit the spot! The fall colors were as beautiful as I had hoped they would be, despite the gloomy weather. I got off at Schaffhausen and caught the train back to Zurich. I wish I had planned for more time to see more of Schaffhausen, but it was getting late and I had trouble finding the train station, so I was sort of racing around town in a bit of a panic. I should have followed everyone else who got off the boat, rather than setting off in my own direction. One of the cruise employees had kindly advised me to sit on the LEFT side of the train back to Zurich, so I would get an awesome view of the Rheinfall (waterfall). All-in-all a perfect day! I encourage you to do this in early October, because there are fewer tourists and the weather's not too bad yet.

Visited the place for a couple of hours while we were on our way to the Rhine Falls. Lovely place with beautiful charming houses and shops.
