Rock Experience
Fortune favours the brave.
The Rock Experience is without doubt our highlight at the Rhine Falls in Schaffhausen.
Loud thundering and roaring is guaranteed at Europe’s largest waterfall, where the water plunges 23 metres into the depths. In the midst of this natural spectacle, you have the unique opportunity to climb the Middlerock. It is not quite so easy to reach, but it is really worth it, because the giant is something very special.
Feel the magic of untouched nature.

Description
The Rhine Falls, the largest waterfall in Europe, are best experienced from the water, on one of our traditionally crafted boats.
On the Rock Experience you will experience the Rhine Falls from a unique perspective. We take you by boat to the heart of the Rhine Falls, the mighty Middle Rock. There, during your 20-minute stay, you have the opportunity to climb the more than 100 steps to the 30-metre-high viewing platform. The climb is worth it, once at the top you will be rewarded with a unique 360-degree view of the Rhine Falls. On the way back to the harbour you will be offered another incomparable photo backdrop that you should not miss!
Take the opportunity to experience the largest waterfall in Europe in a unique way that is only possible with us.
