Traunfall is a shore-based Austrian river site with clear, cold water.
Traunfall is a shore-based Austrian river site with clear, cold water, steep structure, and a well-supported dive base on the bank. It works best as an organized river dive or scubing outing, with small groups moving through route-specific current, narrow sections, and calmer pockets where freshwater life gathers. The river setting makes it more of a route-and-flow problem than a scenery problem.
