The Seisenbergklamm
Natural monument in Weißbach
The entrance to the Seisenbergklamm, the so-called gateway to the Weißbach Nature Park, is located directly in the center of the mountaineering village of Weißbach. The gorge has been open to visitors since 1831. Over a length of 600m, solid wooden walkways and steps lead through this natural visitor magnet in the Salzburger Saalachtal. Past hissing waterfalls and high above the wildly gushing water, the path leads into the gorge to the dark gorge, whose narrow rock faces barely let any sunlight through. This condition and the high humidity have allowed special vegetation to flourish in the gorge, reminiscent of a dark green jungle.
All information for your visit
Walking through the gorge is particularly exciting for children aged 3 and over. At various stations, they learn, for example, which bird can imitate the ringing of a cell phone, which plants grow in the gorge and the names of the trees around it. And if you look closely, you might even discover the friendly gorge ghost who guards the gorge.
Opening times: Early May to mid-September daily from 8.30 am to 6.30 pm and from mid-September daily from 9 am to 5 pm.
In July and August, it is advisable to visit the gorge in the morning or late afternoon, when it is a little quieter.
Duration: Pure walking time approx. 1 hour
Entrance fees: Admission is free with the Salzburger Saalachtal Card.
You can find the current prices here.
