The Stillensteinklamm in Grein is a romantic gorge in the Mühlviertel. The hike through the Stillensteinklamm is on a well-secured climbing system and is therefore also suitable for parents with children.

A beautiful circular hike through the Stillenstein Gorge – a true nature experience! The trail led us past impressive rock formations and roaring waters until we reached the Aumühle, where a sensational meal awaited us. Fortified, we continued through Struden, with magnificent views and idyllic paths. A day full of enjoyment, tranquility, and unforgettable memories – highly recommended!
