Description

This newly arranged via ferrata route will lead you along roaring waterfalls through Galitzenklamm at the foot of the Rauchkofel - nearby Dolomite city Lienz. Impressive views into the depth and the water’s murmur make it a really “cool” event.

 

The gorge is a particularly interesting excursion destination for families since the waterfall observation trail is also accessible with young children (paved trails and climbing path with bridges and prospect pulpits, a stone ball mill and illustrated charts that provide information on the local history, geology, flora and birds).

 

Difficulty levels: in the second section various C-spots; the rest is B to C

 

Approach: starting point car park at Jausenstation (snack bar) Galitzenklamm – from the cash desk follow the stream all the way to the wall base (see info chart).

 

Way down: follow the wooden footbridges at the waterfall observation trail back to the cash desk.

 

(Entrance to the gorge is subject to a fee.)
