Trummelbach Falls – how far from parking lot?

Short summary – read this first

Agnes is planning a two-week family trip to Switzerland and wants information about getting to Trummelbach Falls from the parking lot. She’s specifically interested in the distance and time needed for the walk. Other travelers confirm it's a short walk from the parking area, making it an easy visit.

Key takeaways:
  • The walk from the parking lot to Trummelbach Falls takes about 5-10 minutes and is slightly uphill.
  • The entrance to the Falls is close to the parking area, making access easy.
  • After entering, there's a funicular that helps you reach the upper part of the pathway through the Falls.
  • Be prepared for steep stairs if you want to reach the top, but it’s worth it for the view.

    We are doing a two-week family tour through our ancestral homeland and would like to visit Trummelbach Falls, but haven’t found any information on the distance and time needed to get to the falls from the designated parking lot.

    Thanks for all your great information on this site.

    Hi Agnes and welcome to MySwissAlps!

    I haven’t been there but from what I can find it looks like its only a few minute walk from parking to the Falls. It is a tourist spot and not a remote location.

    Another member who has been there can chime in for more exact details. 🙂

    Hi Agnes, I’ve been in the Lauterbrunnen Valley many times which is where the Trummelbach Falls are located. I can confirm that the area for parking is right by the entrance to the Falls. Hope this helps, Jay Jay

    I have been through the falls twice and the walk from the parking lot to the falls is a short 5-10 minute walk, a little uphill but a very easy walk. Once through the ticket gate it is another very short (2 minute) walk to the funicular that takes you to the upper part of the pathway through the falls.

    Have gone to Trummelbach Falls twice- last visit May 16—–Short walk to entrance which is uphill -lift will take you part way up inside mountain and ( just to warn if walking is an issue) then steep stairs to and uphill walking to top set of Falls (inside mountain)! You will enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!
