Saußbachklamm Trail

Highlight • Gorge

An easy hiking trail through the Saußbach Gorge, but not suitable for strollers. Hiking trail 1 through the gorge is very well marked.

At over 30 degrees Celsius not exactly great fun, but still a beautiful trail and if you have the chance, you should take a Brotzeit (snack break) in the Haller Alm.
