Johannesbach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The Johannesbachklamm is a popular excursion destination on the western edge of Würflach and only an hour from Vienna. On the way through the gorge, which is just over a kilometer long, visitors experience a small natural paradise that is pleasantly cool even on hot days. And if you look closely, you can see from the rock walls that are up to 60 meters deep how the Johannesbach has dug itself into the Wetterstein limestone over thousands of years.

With a walking time of 30 minutes, the excursion is particularly great for families with children. This is also due to the many stairs and bridges that make the path so entertaining. If you want, you can leave the wooden footbridge in some places and cool your feet in the Johannesbachbach. You can also take a good rest at the KlammWirtin at the entrance to the gorge.

By the way: If you like to walk for longer, you can turn the walk through the Johannesbachklamm into a hike. Or you can admire the "largest decorated Christmas tree in Austria" in the Johannesbachklamm during Advent.

Guesthouse Waldesruh (Johannesbach Gorge)

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Gerhartl refuge is the ideal destination for family hikes. It is located at the upper end of the 1 km long and up to 60 meter deep Johannesbach Gorge, in which the Johannesbach Gorge Cave and the Klammwirt Cave are also located along the child-friendly path. Landlord Johann guarantees that "everyone will find something on the menu that they particularly like!" Younger guests like to romp around in the playground in front of the hut, which can be reached from the car park at the end of Klammgasse in Würflach via the gorge in 20 minutes.

A small detour to the Johannesbachklamm refuge is always worthwhile!

Opening hours:
End of June - end of September daily from 10 a.m.
Except in bad weather! Otherwise only on SA, SO, FTG.
During Advent in the Johannesbachklamm, Christmas & New Year’s Eve Overnight stay (beds / camp): – / 20
