The Krimml Waterfalls (German: Krimmler Wasserfälle), with a total height of 380 meters (1,247 feet), are the highest waterfall in Austria. The falls are on the Krimmler Ache river and are located near the village of Krimml in the High Tauern National Park in Salzburg state.

Part of the Krimml Waterfalls.
Krimmler Waterfalls is a tiered waterfall. The waterfall begins at the top of the Krimmler Ache valley and plunges downward in three stages. The upper stage has a drop of 140 meters, the middle of 100 meters, and the lowest a drop of 140 meters. The highest point of the waterfall is 1,470 meters above sea level.

The Krimmler Ache is a glacial stream whose flow varies greatly with the season. Its volumetric flow in June and July is 20,000 m3/h (about 5.28 million gallons per hour), while in February it is only 500 m3/h (about 0.13 million gallons per hour). The greatest measured flow was on 25 August 1987, when it was 600,000 m3/h or almost 160 million gallons per hour.

After the falls, the river joins the Salzach, which flows to the Inn, then into the River Danube, and finally to the Black Sea.

To ensure that tourists could see more of the waterfall without difficulty, Ignaz von Kürsinger, from Mittersill, created a path to the upper part of the waterfall. In 1879, the Austrian Alpine Club improved the road to provide a more panoramic view. About 400,000 people visit the falls annually. The misty spray of the waterfall creates ideal growth conditions for hundreds of mosses, lichens, and ferns. The surroundings are the habitat for 62 bird species.

There is a negative impact on the local residents due to the high traffic level in a small village, and because of erosion to the road.[citation needed]
