Description

The Palfau waterhole gorge south of Mt. Hochkar is a true highlight for all nature lovers. Narrow canyons, gushing waterfalls, deep insights and sweeping views make the one-and-a-half-hour long hike to the waterhole a real experience.

Passing five impressive waterfalls with a total height of fall of 152 m and crossing many a wooden bridge, the steep track is winding upwards step by step. After overcoming the last hurdles, you will reach the lookout post that rewards you with deep insights into the fountainhead cavern and magnificent views across Salzatal Valley.

Sturdy footwear is recommended!
