Trümmelbach Falls (German: Trümmelbachfälle) are a series of ten waterfalls within a mountain in the Lauterbrunnen Valley of the Bernese Oberland in Switzerland. The stream is fed by meltwater from glaciers on the flanks of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau and descends about 140 metres through the mountain. The waterfalls have been accessible to visitors since the late 19th century via tunnels, galleries and stairways and are listed in Switzerland’s Federal Inventory of Natural Monuments.
