The imposing staircase "Helix" is an absolute specialty of the Liechtenstein Gorge. It winds over a height difference of 30 meters.

The highlight of the renovated Liechtensteinklamm is the impressive “Helix” staircase, which is a spiral staircase made of Corten steel that extends up to 30 m into the depths, where you can experience breathtaking impressions of the natural spectacle. As part of the renovation, a total of three tunnels, four galleries and 60 rockfall nets with a total length of 1,100 m were built. All structures and safety nets had to be flown into the gorge by helicopter. Around 7,000 minutes of flight and high precision were necessary to transport the building materials, some of which weighed several tons, into the gorge. In addition, there was extensive rock clearance on the rock walls, some of which were overhanging and up to 200 m high. A monitoring system that detects movements in the rocks in the millimeter range also ensures safety.

It is best to visit the gorge very early at 9 o'clock ..... if you are one of the first visitors then you get the best impressions and photos.
