If there's a waterfall nearby, it attracts us, and this time it was a highlight too, absolutely beautiful.

This gorge was formed by water erosion, with some places reaching 100 meters in height. A jacket is recommended when walking in the gorge. It's possible to have a drink and a bite to eat after the visit (though it's quieter in the morning).

Beautiful gorge, great waterfall. If you like the Palatinate wine festival atmosphere but don't have a wine spritzer with you, you're welcome to do the tour. Far too crowded, typical tourist traps, selfie queens and SLR grandpas all too often block the very narrow path. A shame for the gorge.

Now that the Punschkuchl team from Tulln has taken over the hut, it is hipper, a bit more alternative and much more loving than other huts. You can go SUP, at 8 there is yoga with a view of the Hafner and the breakfast buffet is absolutely amazing.

The waterfall is at the end of the gorge and can only be reached through the gorge 😉

An absolute MUST: you can't describe it, you have to see it. You can easily cycle to the ticket office. The 12 euro entrance fee is well spent. After the rockslide in 2017, the gorge was closed for a long time. Now everything has been re-secured and sensors are reporting rock movements.
