Schleifmühlklamm

The Schleifmühlklamm is not as mighty as the Partnachklamm, for example, but it does not cost any admission and there is much less rush. Here you can explore the gorge on paths and boardwalks all year round and listen to the babbling of the brook.

The hike starts at Pürschlingparkplatz in Unterammergau. From there, walk along the Schleifmühlenlaine through the Schleifmühlklamm. Passing the former grinding mills the path runs over several steps and walkways to the waterfalls worth seeing. On the route are some signs with information on whetstone making appropriate. A highlight is next to the numerous waterfalls the restored Wetzsteinmühle at the beginning of the gorge.

Beautiful gorge, which can be done for free.
Every second Saturday of the month from May to October, you can watch a local resident master grinder over his shoulder. Whether it still exists at the moment, I can not say, because the grinding mill is currently being restored / refurbished.

A very nice gorge. If you follow the path at the end of the gorge to the Pürschling hut, then you have a wonderful view. And from there you can descend to Linderhof Castle.

... and if you would like to find out more details about the production of the whetstones from the slate slabs (squint) of this gorge, you will find informative information at

A very beautiful gorge

I was there in May / June, but also very nice when there is snow

Closed in the months of excessive rain

In winter, really only to go to the waterfall and on the same way back. Note for dog owners: Bridge bridges are with perforated grid.

Experienced first gorge with our 3 year old daughter.
Very nice

Beautiful little gorge really worth seeing

Nice little gorge in every season

One of the places worth seeing in the Ammergau Valley, definitely worth a visit.

Paths a bit slippery, but wonderful little gorge.

Nice to walk even in snow🤗

Nice trail about 90 HM from the parking lot to the exit

Small piece with lots of roots

The several small and beautiful waterfalls of the Schleifmühlenklamm are just beautiful :)

Definitely worth a visit to see all the waterfalls in the gorge.

As always, a good tour start. Very varied path through the gorge (the next time we will go down the path).

Above all, you can take great photos

Super nice, on hot days you would love to jump in right away.

Beautiful

Cool gorge with old mills. Viewing is free of charge
