テルニッツの絶景の山頂・トップ20

The Johannesbach Gorge, approximately 1 km long and up to 60 m deep, on the western edge of Würflach is a true natural gem and a popular destination – especially on hot summer days. The well-maintained trail, with numerous wooden walkways, steps, and bridges, leads through a wildly romantic gorge carved into the Wetterstein limestone by the Johannesbach stream over millennia. Along the way, you'll discover deep potholes, bowl-shaped depressions ("mills"), and, with a little attention, geological features such as the "Marientritt" (Marientritt). Two small caves – the Johannesbach Gorge Cave and the Klammwirt Cave – complete the experience. With a walk time of approximately 30 minutes, the gorge is also ideal for families with children. Those who like can dip their feet in the cool water or stop off at the Klammwirtin restaurant. The gorge is particularly atmospheric during the Advent market, when Austria's largest decorated Christmas tree is illuminated. If you want more, you can combine the gorge with hikes to the Schrattenstein castle ruins, along the Andreassteig or towards Grünbach.

The "Great Pulpit" on the Hohe Wand is an absolute highlight and a must for every visitor. It offers a breathtaking view and is a popular meeting place for hikers, climbers and nature lovers. The imposing summit cross towers over the landscape and gives the place a special atmosphere - particularly impressive with dark clouds in the background. Various routes lead up, including the Springlessteig and the Wagnersteig. Whether for a well-deserved rest, a good meal on the sunny terrace or just to unwind - you should take your time up here to enjoy the view to the fullest.

With a 30 minute walk, the trip is especially great for families with children, unfortunately almost no water

The fisherman's hut is located at an altitude of 2049 m, making it the highest mountain hut in Lower Austria. And it was very well attended and you can also stay overnight

Always take a hood with you. I've never had a moment of calm there

The Johannesbach Gorge, which is around 60 m deep and around 1000 m long, lies entirely in the Wetterstein limestone. It lies like a barrier across the course of the Johannesbach and at the same time separates the softer rocks of the Werfen layers of the Schrattenbach hills to the west from the large gravel areas of the Rohrbach conglomerate in the Steinfeld to the east. The predecessor of the Johannesbach once had to break through the Wetterstein limestone barrier. A tectonic furrow and the rainy climate of the post-glacial period helped it: it carried a lot of water, which in turn moved enormous amounts of rock and eroded the subsoil of the stream. Over thousands of years, the tectonic line was deepened and the stream bed sunk. Many potholes on the steep slopes of the gorge and mills in the subsoil - including the "Marientritt" - testify to the power of the early Johannesbach.

The Johannesbachklamm is a popular excursion destination on the western edge of Würflach and only an hour from Vienna. On the way through the gorge, which is just over a kilometer long, visitors experience a small natural paradise that is pleasantly cool even on hot days. And if you look closely, you can see from the rock walls that are up to 60 meters deep how the Johannesbach has dug itself into the Wetterstein limestone over thousands of years. With a walking time of 30 minutes, the excursion is particularly great for families with children. This is also due to the many stairs and bridges that make the path so entertaining. If you want, you can leave the wooden footbridge in some places and cool your feet in the Johannesbachbach. You can also take a good rest at the KlammWirtin at the entrance to the gorge. By the way: If you like to walk for longer, you can turn the walk through the Johannesbachklamm into a hike. Or you can admire the "largest decorated Christmas tree in Austria" in the Johannesbachklamm during Advent. Source: www.niederoesterreich.at/ausflugsziel/a-johannesbachklamm-wuerflach

Wildly romantic gorge. Pleasantly cool in summer
