Trümmelbach Falls

The Trümmelbach Falls (German: Trimmelbachfälle or Trümmelbachfälle) in Bernese Oberland, Switzerland, are a series of ten glacier-fed waterfalls inside the mountain made accessible by the tunnel lift, stairs, and illumination.

Its drainage area is 24 square kilometres (9.3 sq mi), half of it covered by snow and glaciers. The falls carry up to 20,000 litres of water per second.
