Krimml Waterfalls as a remedy for the lungs

With a drop height of 380m, the Krimml Waterfalls are a unique natural remedy for allergies and asthma. As early as 1808, the country doctor Wolfgang Oberlechner recommended that his patients should spend time in the fine spray of the Krimml Waterfalls to treat various illnesses. In several clinical studies, the Paracelsus Medical University succeeded in scientifically proving the healing effect of the Krimml Waterfalls on allergies and asthma. Today, the Krimml Waterfalls are a recognized natural healing resource (officially recognized by the state of Salzburg in 2015 and renewed in 2020) and offer allergy and asthma sufferers a completely new therapy option. The resulting effects can be found here.
