Highlight • Gorge

Very nice gorge! She only has one entry. We parked the fully packed bikes at the entrance/exit of the gorge. That is of course a risk, but nothing happened. The restaurant was also open.

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.

Liechtenstein Gorge Tunnel

Highlight • Gorge

Take a change of clothes with you because you can get wet in some places. You can't really do that with a pram because there are stairs in front of you

July 27, 2022,Wildes Wasser - Faszinierende Felsschluchten - Liechtensteinklamm

In terms of length (approx. 1.5 km), depth (approx. 300 m), wilderness and abundance of water, there is no comparison to this extraordinary gorge in Austria.
Over millions of years, the roaring waterfalls and the torrential masses of water have cut deeper and deeper into the calcareous slate. The rocks are now so narrow and high in places that the …

The gorge for the second time...it's best to go when it opens or at 6 p.m. Otherwise there are just too many people around and you can't really enjoy it.
The beer garden right at the entrance/exit is not recommended.

The gorge would be quite nice if there weren't loads of people around. You have to go back the same way and that makes the whole thing even more difficult. It's a shame, best to avoid the holiday season if possible 😅

Today we went to the Liechtenstein Gorge near Sankt Johann im Pongau. About 1.5 km from the parking lot we found ourselves in a 30-minute queue to buy tickets. Paid almost 40 euros for a family of 4, we were able to enter the gorge. Unfortunately, the path was much too narrow for the many people. Unfortunately, the way there …

The Liechtenstein Gorge is one of the longest, deepest and most impressive gorges in the Alps. It fascinates with the mighty roar of the waterfall, the moss-covered stones, a legendary atmosphere and rays of sunshine that create a rainbow in the fine water dust.
