Hiking Highlight (Segment)
The longest accessible gorge in Upper Austria leads through a wild and romantic rock gorge over 1.5 kilometers and 500 steps. Nevertheless, the hike is classified as "easy" and is well secured. At the end a small waterfall falls just a few meters from the ascent route. The gorge is named after the builder of the path.
Open from May to the end of October, on weekdays from 7.30 a.m., on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays from 7 a.m.

Incredibly energetic, also suitable for the smaller bergfexe.
Very impressive how the natural spectacle fits so perfectly into the landscape.
Good footwear is an advantage, some places are slightly slippery ... it is also a gorge ☺️
At the Bosruckhütte on a guade Jausn or who wants more there are some huts to explore.

A wild and romantic rock canyon with a doctorate in Spital am Pyhrn. Second longest gorge in Austria. Since he was also chairman of the SCHÖNERUNGSVEREIN, he tried very hard to make this wild and romantic, over 1.5 km long rock gorge accessible, hence the name. The Dr. Vogelgesangklamm was first made partly accessible for summer visitors at the time in 1906. In 1908 the gorge was destroyed by floods.
1926 - 1927 the municipality of Spital am Pyhrn prepared the entire rock gorge with stairs and footbridges that are anchored in the vertical rock for hiking through. When climbing the Dr.-Vogelgesang-Klamm there are about 500 steps to climb. These stairs and walkways are always carefully checked before they open at the beginning of May and then replaced or rebuilt.

The path through the gorge is more like a walk, because of the footbridges, the terrain is also quite easy. However, make better during the week since the gorge is rather crowded. Considering the well-kept jetties, the entrance fee of EUR 4.70 is quite reasonable.

Unfortunately, this impressive backdrop cannot be captured and conveyed in a photo. The personal live recording is nowhere near that. This detour is a must when visiting the region.
