Wimbachklamm

The water of the Wimbach, which flows underground in the rear Wimbachtal, comes in this gorge with a loud roar to the surface and crashes spectacularly over steep waterfalls down into the gorge. Along the steep rocks, bridges and footbridges lead past the impressive natural spectacle through the 200 m long gorge.

The gorge is accessible only from below, after the Wimbachschloss you come back to the starting point via another route.

opening hours
May 1 - November 1, 7 am - 7 pm, weather-related changes possible

entry
Adults and young people € 2, children under 6 years free

I love this valley. The National Park is really beautiful and it is worth to go to the Grieshütte.

If someone wants to do the Ramsau round trip, which also starts there, then you have to go right after the gorge downhill, otherwise you will not find the entry way. Is wrongly signposted. Otherwise you keep going uphill and waiting for a turn to the right.

An unforgettable natural spectacle. The 2 € entrance fees are well invested here.

Since this gorge is significantly shorter than the better known Almbachklamm, you should take your time. It is worth it! Personally, I find this gorge the most beautiful in the region!

The gorge is beautiful and the € 2 entry is definitely worth it.

Here you can experience the forces of nature up close. The few euro admission worthwhile!

Simply impressive. Here you can see the power of the forces of nature.

Have been there several times. The sound of the water and everywhere big and small waterfalls - just beautiful.

Beautifully designed gorge. After the gorge we continue to Wimbachschlössl or back to the starting point.

The path through the gorge is not very long, but it is rewarded.

We were there and it was really worth it. Just incredible and beautiful.

When the weather is nice the Wimbachtal is beautiful!
Definitely recommended.

Dogs are allowed in the Wimbachklamm and can run the distance (about 200m) without any problems (leashed!). Only a staircase with steps, where you can look down in the interstices to the river, could possibly be difficult ...

Without guest card the entrance fee for adults is 2.50 €.

When the weather is nice the Wimbachtal is beautiful!
Definitely recommended.

Here you become aware of the power of the water.

Worthwhile.
As one-way, right on the way through the gorge.

The dominant rock of the gorge is the Dachstein limestone, which was deposited in the Upper Triassic. Numerous fossils in the walls of the gorge testify that here once a sea must have existed. During a hike through the gorge up to the Wimbachschloss you can pass a period of about 50 million years. The rocks occurring here are the Flaserkalke, Rotkalke, Radiolarite and chert leading limes.

Beautiful ascent through the Wimbachklamm, over the Wimbachgrieß to Wimbachgrießhütte 👍🏼

Very nice gorge. Not the longest but highly recommended. Man can take a little time and let himself be absorbed.

Highly recommended, good restaurant at the beginning of the Wimbachklamm
