This live stream looks out over the Rhine Falls, the largest waterfall in Europe by volume, near the town of Neuhausen am Rheinfall in canton Schaffhausen. It suits anyone planning a visit, following river levels, or simply wanting to watch the water roll over the rocks from home.
A waterfall on the High Rhine
The Rhine Falls lie on the High Rhine, where the river drops roughly 23 metres over a wide band of limestone before continuing towards Schaffhausen and Basel. The surrounding area is a mix of wooded slopes, the Rheinfall castles and viewing platforms, and a riverside landscape that has drawn visitors for centuries. The falls are the best-known natural sight in northern Switzerland.
What to watch and when
The camera is most rewarding when the Rhine carries high water, which typically happens after snowmelt in late spring and after heavy rain. In that state the flow is powerful and the spray is strong. In calmer periods the rock formations in the middle of the falls become more visible. Early morning and late afternoon light tends to bring out the colour of the water, though this depends on the weather and the view at the time.
Practical notes and nearby views
Summers are mild and pleasant, while winters can be cold and damp with occasional snow. Spring and autumn are often the most comfortable times to visit the falls on foot. Trains and buses from Schaffhausen reach the area easily. Nearby cameras include Uhwiesen with its live view of the falls, as well as Schleitheim, Singen and Stein am Rhein.
