Why this trip
Water does not only thunder here, it also invites you to join in. At the Rhine Falls, the largest waterfall in Europe, the path leads over viewing platforms right up to the spray. If you seek more movement, switch to the Adventure Park Rheinfall, where over 170 elements for climbing, balancing and swinging are ready. If you have a head for heights and strength in your arms, you find several courses there that increase in steps.
For recovery there is the old town with its oriel windows. The Munot, the round fortress above the city, demands only a short climb and rewards with a view over the Rhine and rooftops. Afterwards the Allerheiligen Monastery offers a calm counterpart to the bustle at the waterfall. Between June and September the conditions are most reliable, and the days are long enough for two activities.
Zurich, Lucerne, Basel and Engelberg lie within reach, so that Schaffhausen can be built in as an opener or as a day trip into a longer Swiss route. How many hours in the climbing park are realistic depends on your experience, and exactly that is what the planning clarifies in the video call.
