Trummelbach Falls

Wikipedia says: The Trummelbach Falls in Switzerland are a series of ten glacier-waterfalls inside the mountain.

The Trummelbach alone drains the mighty glacier defiles of Eiger (3970 m), Mönch (4099 m) and Jungfrau (4158 m) and carries 20,200 tons of boulder detritus per year.

Its drainage area is 24 km², half of it covered by snow and glaciers. Up to 20,000 liters of water per second. The only glacier-waterfalls in Europe inside the mountain and still accessible.

The Trummelbach Falls belong to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Jungfrau-Aletsch Protected Area and is listed in the Federal Inventory of Landscapes and Natural Monuments of National Importance of Switzerland.
