Om
Hurtige fakta: Over 700 meters of footpaths wind through a gorge where the Partnach River has carved 80-meter-deep limestone walls. Winter transforms the waterfalls into enormous icicles, drawing ice climbers from across Europe to scale the frozen formations.
Højdepunkter: During the 1936 Winter Olympics, the gorge served as the backdrop for the ski jumping competition, with spectators packed along the canyon edges. Water sprays from the thundering falls create perpetual rainbows when sunlight hits the mist at the right angle, especially around midday.
Insidertips
- Bring a waterproof jacket even on sunny days: the mist from the waterfalls will soak you in sections.
- Arrive before 9 AM in summer to experience the gorge with hardly any other visitors.
- Wear sturdy shoes with good grip: the boardwalks and tunnels stay slippery year-round from constant moisture.
- Skip the walk back through the gorge and take the hiking trail above the canyon for a completely different perspective.
