The 10 Best Canyons in Austria, Austria

May 29, 2021 Alice Mieles

As home to majestic mountains, opulent palaces, and high culture, Austria's attractions are classically sumptuous and enduring. But beyond the waltzes, the strudels, the alpine summits, and Habsburg architecture, its modern cities are proof of just how easily Austria combines the contemporary with the historic.

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.

Dr. Vogelgesang-Klamm

Reviewed By adventurerfoodie - London, United Kingdom

The strangely named Dr. Vogelgesang-Klamm is well worth a visit. Very very beautiful - with fresh water from the mountain thundering past as you climb the gorge. Breathtaking scenary. Unfortunately we only had time for the first part of the hike - around a hour and half - total time recommended for the entire hike is around 5 hours. Would love to go back.
