Beautiful old building in Bad Hofgastein

Known in recent centuries as Wildbad, since 1997 only with the suffix "Bad" (Bad); the village develops to the left and right of the Gastein Waterfall; the Gasteiner Ache falls here in three stages, 341 m deep; the location of the village center on the steep slopes, constrained by high mountains, has led to numerous multi-story buildings, especially imposing hotels – mostly from the Belle Epoque – as well as generally quite narrow streets (colloquially also referred to as a "skyscraper village"); the difference in elevation in the village center alone, between the spring gardens and the train station, is 80 m; today a center of summer and winter tourism in the Gastein Valley.

Shortly before the Gasteiner Ache flows into the Salzach, it flows through a deep gorge at its northern end and then plunges over an impressive terrace toward the valley floor. The actual gorge road is no longer passable due to rockfall; a cycle track leads through the gorge tunnel into the Gasteiner Valley.

The Filialkirche Unser Liebe Frau (also known as Liebfrauenkirche or simply Frauenkirche) is a Catholic church in Bischofshofen, which was used as a "people's church" or parish church for the local population after the current parish church of St. Maximilian was temporarily used as a monastery church. Standing on a terrace just above the village, its origins can be traced back to the 10th/11th century.

The Cella Maximiliana is the predecessor of today's parish church in Bischofshofen, the mother settlement of the Innergebirg region. Built in 711/12, at the same time as the Nonnberg Monastery, the church acquired its present appearance in the mid-15th century. Today, it forms a single architectural unit with the town hall of Bischofshofen.

Beautiful new flower boxes

Turn-off from the Salzach into the Gastein Valley. From here, the trail climbs the Gasteiner Ache, with several steep sections.
