A unique experience trail

The Leutascher Ghost Gorge

Hell water and ghost pools, witch cauldrons and devil's water, an adventure world of water and stone. Welcome to the realm of the mountain spirit and its friends!

Visitors of all ages can hike through the gorge on four different routes and discover it in a playful way.

The Legend of the Klamm Spirit

Since the beginning of time, the spirit of the gorge has lived in the Leutasch Gorge. He knows every stone, every bird, and every little moss plant. He looks after them all and settles every dispute. That has always been the case, but for some time now, the spirit of the gorge has lost interest. When his two friends, the nature spirits Flora and Einstein, hear this, they are dismayed.

Klamm Spirit

"I am the Klamm Spirit! I am made of water that shapes rocks and creates valleys. Hard as ice, bubbling like spray, I ensure that everything changes yet remains as it is."

Einstein

"I am stone, from head to toe, granite, phyllite, and limestone. Even my heart is stone, yet it burns for this gorge."

Flora

"Blooming and thriving is my essence. I wink at you from every tree and every flower. Nice to have you here!"

Help us convince the Klamgeist to stay with us, because nowhere is more beautiful than in the Ghost Gorge.
