Europe Highlights
Even though this is a waterfalls website, we recognize that there are many highlights in the European countries (both involving and not involving waterfalls). So we’ve come up with this page to pay homage to some of the highlights that we…
Austria
Austria Waterfalls were abundant largely due to its mountainous terrain as it sat smack in the heart of the Eastern Alps. With such an abundance of mountains, we knew there were waterfalls to be seen here…
Luxembourg
Luxembourg Waterfalls seems like a bit of an oxymoron when you consider the size of this landlocked country. And yet there was a surprising amount of Nature here that was within reach of Luxembourg City….
Germany
Germany Waterfalls are largely concentrated in the country’s mountainous south encompassing the Bavarian Alps and the Black Forest. While most tourists visit the country to see the fairy-tale castles and the medieval towns, it’s amazing…
Great Britain

Greece
Greece Waterfalls are perhaps one of the most unheard-of attractions in a country more known for its ancient ruins and Mediterranean islands. But believe it or not, they do exist and in a fair bit of abundance…
France
France Waterfalls are probably as underappreciated as they get. You’d figure that in a country as well visited as France that les cascades (French word for waterfalls) would get a little more love. Julie and I couldn’t…
Croatia
Croatia Waterfalls have been making a reappearance on the world stage after tourism there was in a long recovery resulting from the aftermath of the Yugoslavian Civil War in the 1990s. And I think the world…
Europe
Europe Waterfalls aren’t normally what one thinks about when the continent of “Europe” comes to mind. Indeed, this compact continent probably boasts the densest collection of countries and diversity of people…
