Massaschlucht

We spent a weekend at Hamilton Lodge, Belalp, and our last hike was through the Massaschlucht. Very beautiful!

Liechtensteinklamm

Winter closure - re-opening May 2021! Liechtenstein Gorge is certainly one of the longest, deepest, and most impressive gorges in the Alps. The mighty thunder of the waterfall, the moss-grown rocks in rich green, a legendary atmosphere, and sun rays that create a rainbow in the fine water mist. The unique natural spectacle in the Salzburger Land is known for an unforgettable trip of a special kind - an experience for the whole family. Over thousands of years, the thundering water falls and the rushing masses of water have cut more and more deeply into the mountain and have created a gorge. The rocks stand so narrow and high in places that only a small strip of the sky remains visible.

During our Salzburg vacation we came across this gorge as a highly recommended place to visit and it's definitely worth your time. The way through the gorge is newly renovated and really nicely made, you get plenty of awesome views. The only minus is the amount of people. We came there early, shortly after opening. But when we reached the end and had to return the same way back, we had to pass a lot of people; of course many of them didn't wear masks though they are mandatory. I also didn't enjoy wearing them but try to stick to the rules. But either way, if you can, it's a great place to see.

Rappenlochschlucht

Reviewed By ShavyB - Roeselare, Belgium

Austria is known for its beautiful landscapes. In general, wherever you go, natures are everywhere! You can park the car near the Krippen museum, is paid parking, be sure your parking ticket is visible behind the windshield to avoid fines. The first part of the walk is a bit upwards, but the rest is flat. There are a few waterfalls to see during the hike. If nature is the purpose never missed this place if you are in the area — a highly recommended for the nature lover.

Viamala Gorge

Visit the Viamala Canyon and experience this impressive monument for yourself. Carved through the massive cliffs thousands of years ago by glacial ice and the waters of the Rhine (Hinterrhein), the Viamala Canyon still contains living evidence of its fascinating history for you to discover today. Well worth a visit, even in bad weather!

Gorges du Trient

Puissant exemple du phénomène d'érosion, elles forment une profonde incision de quelques centaines de mètres de hauteur au fond de laquelle coule le torrent glaciaire. L'entrée des gorges du Trient se trouve à Vernayaz, à deux pas de la gare du Mont-Blanc Express. La gorges est traversée par deux des plus hauts ponts d'Europe qui surplombent les Gorges de 200m. Promenade sans difficulté. Retour obligatoire jusqu'à l'entrée des gorges; pas de chemins pédestres qui continue dans la vallée du Trient.
