This beautiful gorge has something for everyone. Shady, easy-to-walk hiking trails with many impressive natural sights that make you stop and take a moment. A paradise for amateur photographers like me.😅🤩

A wonderful, idyllic starting point for the entrance to the Stillensteinklamm under the impressive 100-year-old railway viaduct. Was lucky enough to be able to enjoy the freshly smoked salmon trout on Sunday (one is enough for two people!)😍👌🏼 Definitely worth a visit. Free parking is also available.
