Valley Floor of the Upper Aufseß

Nice quiet valley without disturbing motorcycles

Here you hike on a wide gravel path right next to the meandering Aufseß through the wide, idyllic geotope of the remote flower valley. Unfortunately, due to agricultural use, it can no longer live up to its name. On the other side of the Aufseß you can see a striking group of rocks near Voitmannsdorf that is worth a detour. To do this, you walk along the edge of a field on paths over to the river, turn right along it and reach the other bank on a wooden footbridge. Keeping left past a pond, you come to the left end of the impressive formation with overhangs and deep crevices and then walk right at its base to a picturesque basin.
