Krimml Waterfalls

Highest waterfalls in Austria, worth visiting. Together they measure 385m (145m, 100m, 140m).
In the last few days my wife and I were wandering around those parts. Among other things we also viewed the waterfalls and partially the Krimmler Achental valley. As much as the weather allowed. In the afternoon it usually rained.
By the waterfalls the path is very well arranged, with viewing platforms where showering is possible. Above the second waterfall you can refresh in a guesthouse on a scenic terrace.
Above the third waterfall the Krimmler Achental valley starts, which collects water for the waterfalls from several glaciers.
After cca 1km the valley opens and shows in full extent and length. Unfortunately the weather was unfavorable and we turned back after a few km. So that we could get to the hotel in the valley still dry.
Entrance fee is 8 euros. They treated us as guests of the hotel Nationalparkhotel Klockerhaus.
Also the parking fee, which is otherwise 7 euros, we were exempted from. But near the waterfalls there are many parking lots, which should be more expensive closer to the waterfalls.
