Tips from the Community

October 12, 2025, Gießenbach Covered Bridge (Altschneid)

The covered wooden bridge over the Gießenbach stream near the Schopperalm is a charming and characteristic feature on the hiking route through the Gießenbach Gorge – especially on the way back to the farms around the Trojerhof.

Those crossing this bridge experience a transition between two sections of the hike: from the alpine pasture and the open terrain back into the forest and up to the meadows and pastures surrounding the Trojerhof. The bridge marks not only a geographical location, but also a change of atmosphere – the sound of the stream beneath the planks, the wooden roofs overhead, the feeling of protection from rain or strong sun.

The "Hechtsee Outflow - Station 11" viewpoint on the Kiefer Energy Hiking Trail is a particularly good place to view the waterfall. The outflowing water sometimes smells like rotten eggs due to hydrogen sulfide compounds in the deep water. This is unpleasant, but not hazardous to health and does not affect the quality of the water for swimming or fishing.
