    Hi There,
    When are the best time of the year to see almost all of the 72 waterfalls in the Lauterbrunnen valley?

    Just as the snow is finishing melting at lower elevations, usually June. However, you will never see all 72. Some of them are barely a trickle of water down the mountain, not really visible but I guess “counts” as a waterfall for those doing the counting.

    You can always see Staubbach (just outside of Lauterbrunnen) and the fall at the end of the valley (above Obersteinberg).

    It’s not when, but how, I believe. If you prefer to Hike then temperate weather is more ideal.
