Mürrenbach Falls

The Mürrenbach, which rises above Mürren, passes the village on the southern edge of the town and falls here over the high rock walls of the Trogtal almost to the valley floor, is a left tributary of the Weissen Lütschine with a catchment area of three and a half square kilometers.

According to studies from 2009, the Mürrenbachfall is considered the highest waterfall in Switzerland with a drop of 417 meters.

[1][2] The Mürrenbachfall, previously known as cascade fall was redefined by geographers into a single case because, upon careful investigation, they could not find any horizontal planes typical of cascades in the case.

[3] The second highest waterfall in Switzerland is the Serenbachfall II, which is 305 meters high.

[6] The impact zone of the main fall is around 920 m. The waterfall is located near the valley station of the cable car to Mürren in Stechelberg, where the Mürrenbach flows into the Lütschine.
