Winter time at the Rhine Falls

Winter Magic

The illumination of the Schloss Laufen on the Rhine Falls during the winter season is magical. Experience this spectacular backdrop as a start to your Christmas event, visit to the restaurant or a stroll in the darker months of the year.

Enjoy the magical atmosphere of the winter lounge under the stars or warm up in our cozy tent. A mulled wine or a raclette with potatoes completes the experience. Self-service, no reservations possible.
