A thank you to our local community - everyone is welcome
On this special Sunday, we are putting our local community centre stage. We would like to thank you for your patience and understanding as so many visitors come to the Rhine Falls throughout the year, placing considerable demands on the local infrastructure.

Some activities and offers are free of charge, while others are available for just one Schnägg (CHF 5.00).
Admission to the viewing platforms and parking are free of charge.
