Impressive waterwheel. Starting point to a nice tour through the Gießenbachklamm.

The Gießenbachklamm is an easy going gorge. There are a few steps (just under 100) until you're up, so unfortunately not suitable for strollers. Otherwise very suitable for children.
No danger spots and entertaining. No entry.

Today's Sachs Bridge consists of two steel bridge sections that were placed on reinforced foundations by helicopter in 2019 to better protect and stabilize the bridge against weather and flood damage.

Despite the lack of 🌞, I was able to convince my girlfriend 👍😅 after a long talk that she would go on the tour with me.
On the way back, the path was closed due to the danger of avalanches, but we went back along the gorge. Judging by the trail, we weren't the first to walk the trail despite …

June 8, 2024,Umgeplante Tour: 😏 Hechtsee und Schopperalm

Today we had actually planned a three-lake tour: Hechtsee, Längsee and Pfrillsee. But due to the storms of the last few days near Kufstein, the hiking trail to Längsee and Pfrillsee is closed today and tomorrow due to forestry work.
So we changed our plans and only went to Hechtsee and then to the Alm 👍😅.
