Giessenbach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The Gießenbachklamm is an easy going gorge. There are a few steps (just under 100) until you're up, so unfortunately not suitable for strollers. Otherwise very suitable for children.
No danger spots and entertaining. No entry.

Very nice tour, and apart from the high stairs, it is also almost flat. Also suitable for dogs. There are treads on the railings on the Sachs Bridge.

This hike is great for families. The hardest part is the beginning stages.
The circular route starts at the water wheel in Thierseestrasse (about 3.5 km from the village, junction with Thierseestrasse / Rosenheimer Str.). From the gravel road, pass the power station on the left …

A leisurely "grandchild outing" with dam building and so on. A relaxing day.
