The Örfla Gorge is accessible from three sides. Most hikers choose the family-friendly starting point at the swimming pool in Riebe. The trail follows the placid Emmebach stream to the gorge. Another access point leads from the St. Arbogast Church up to Stählli. The trail continues along the lowland moorland near the Mitzgebach stream to the gorge entrance. Those wishing to hike the entire length of the accessible gorge can turn off at the junction with the moor towards Meschach.

A must-see in Götzis, which everyone in the region probably knows.

A very beautiful, easy gorge trail along the Emme stream with countless extension options via hiking trails in all directions.
