ランゲネックの峡谷・トップ20

A particularly beautiful natural monument is the tufa slope in Lingenau. It is one of the most magnificent travertine formations in Europe north of the Alps and thus one of the most outstanding geological features in Vorarlberg. Here, spring water plunges over a roughly 40-meter-high escarpment, approximately 30 meters wide, into the Subersach Gorge. The conglomerate outcrop, visible in some places, is partially covered by several meters of travertine and spring tufa. On the overhangs, mushroom-shaped layers of deposits have developed into stalactite-like canopies. At the base of the rock face, the water collects in several travertine pools. Beneath the waterfall, the calcareous water encrustes the slope down to the Subersach River. Plant and animal remains are covered and encrusted by the lime. After the organic matter dissolves, an exact imprint (fossils) remains. The resulting porous, sponge-like rock is called travertine, the denser form being travertine.

Everything is very nicely done, even for children

The path is marked with warning signs (landslide, sudden rise in water, etc.). There is no prohibition sign anywhere. There are even information boards downstream and the bridge that provides access is even being renovated!

A beautiful river with lots of twists and turns. A really beautiful path along the Bolgenach through the Engenloch Gorge. If it rains, don't forget sturdy shoes. The little surprises along the way are a great change for children too.

Nice little path through the gorge, highly recommended walk, absolutely beautiful landscape 🤙🏽

Mega great gorge with small paths along the roaring water.

A wonderful piece of nature. In autumn or wet weather it can be a bit slippery in places, but there are railings everywhere and the view makes up for it all. Anywhere else you would charge an entrance fee for such a gorge 😉

the gorge is worth a detour
