Liechtensteinklamm

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.

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

Helix Staircase, Liechtensteinklamm

The imposing staircase "Helix" is an absolute specialty of the Liechtenstein Gorge. It winds over a height difference of 30 meters.

At the waterfall (at the turning point) there is a rest area and a nice photo point for a great souvenir picture.

The Liechtenstein Gorge is one of the longest and deepest gorges in the Alps. Of the total length of approx. 4 kilometers, 1 kilometer is accessible to visitors. The rocks are up to 300 meters deep and in some places the gorge is only a few meters wide. An adventurous path leads through the gorge over wooden walkways. There is a waterfall at the end of the gorge. According to a legend, the gorge was created when the devil was supposed to bring water to Grossarl as quickly as possible. But he did not succeed in doing so at first. Full of anger and anger, he flew over the ravine and hurled water into it.

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.

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 Lichtenstein Gorge is one of the most impressive gorges in the Alps—and you can tell by the number of visitors. The roaring waterfalls and narrow rocky ravines are certainly impressive, but the crowds do somewhat spoil the experience. It's a balancing act, after all. It's still definitely worth a visit.

June 27, 2023,🇦🇹 Salzburger Land - Liechtensteinklamm 💧

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.
