The tour

The Notgasse at the foot of the Stoderzinken represents a path connection from Gröbming to the higher mountain pastures. The path through a canyon, which is only accessible to pedestrians, was used by alpine people, mule pickers and charcoal burning workers. The impressive gorge with rock walls up to 60 meters high and the historical rock carvings offer the visitor an aura of mystery and mystique.

The tourist association's weekly program includes guided hikes through the Notgasse in the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Turn-by-turn directions

When we reach the forest road, we keep left and hike via the Brandalm to the Rahnstube and further to the Seeboden and through the romantic “ovens” (Gröbminger Öfen) to the parking area at the Kneipp facility Lend.

Walking time from the end of the gorge: 2 hours.
