브룩 안 데어 그로스글로크너슈트라세‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 폭포

It's quite steep, but the view is worth it! Climb a little higher, and you'll get an even closer look at the waterfall! And with a bit of luck, you might even run into fellow hikers in the summer ;) 🐮

The waterfall adventure trail takes you past several waterfalls. The path winds its way uphill or downhill through the picturesque landscape - depending on which direction you are travelling.

Hiking, relaxing and enjoying

On 2024 it opens on 18.5. See updated info here: https://www.taxenbach.at/en/summer/kitzlochklamm/opening-times-kitzlochklamm/

Great gorge with sometimes unimaginable water levels

It is not a waterfall. It is the overflow of the Klammsee. A dam wall for the power plant group's own use plant in Kaprun. Beautifully embedded at the end of the gorge.

Experience the impressive effect of the torrents: from round washouts to majestic waterfalls - a landscape shaped by the power of water. In the Hohe Tauern, torrents make their way through hard rock, forming round washouts, scours and whirlpools as well as impressive waterfalls. The gorge features arise as long as the steep side slopes remain stable. The rocks, mainly from the Wildschönau slate, are almost 500 million years old and tectonically assigned to the Upper Eastern Alpine. However, the soft shales are susceptible to weathering, favoring V-shaped valleys and rounded peaks. Slate formations do not allow deep gorges to form, which is why side slopes often slide. Disasters such as mudflows and floods force the stream to be blocked and retention barriers to be built to protect the towns. The forest also plays a crucial role in protecting against erosion. Maple-ash forests or gray alder slope forests stabilize the slopes and minimize the risk of mudslides and landslides. Protective measures such as avoiding clear-cutting and promoting natural forest communities are crucial for the preservation and stability of the mountain landscape.

An absolutely impressive gorge! We have never taken so many great photos in a gorge; this gorge is definitely worth a trip.
