The Kaltenbach wilderness takes its name from the Kaltenbach, which is often dry, but as soon as it fills up with snowmelt or after a long period of rain, it becomes a small torrent that has cut deep into the small valley.
Rock towers and needles are the result of erosion in the limestone. Together with the Kaltenbach, they form a wild, romantic gorge that can be hiked over footbridges, stairs and bridges.
