Alpjerfall

The Alpjerfall is one of  the better waterfall in Switzerland to visit and is located east of Simplon in the region Valais, Switzerland.

The Alpjerfall is easy to reach. From Simplon drive south over road 9 towards Italy. Near a parking (alte kaserne) there is a small road going left (steep up – gps 46.186701, 8.092706). I think it is allowed to drive with a car here. After a while, at the end of the road (gps 46.210841, 8.110556), you will see the Alpjerfall at the left side. From here you easily can walk towards the waterfall Alpjerfall.

The river Alpjerbach plunges down over a cliff and falls down, in a single drop, over 80 meter.

Early in the season, when there is a lot of snow melting, the waterfall can be quit powerful and is great to see.
