Highlight • Gorge

A hike through this gorge leads over stairs and walkways past plunge pools through the roar of waterfalls, a tip: bring a rain jacket and definitely sturdy footwear!

Weißbach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Very beautiful gorge, in summer ideal for cooling. Since it sometimes goes down very low, I would not recommend this tour for small children.

One of the lesser known and quieter gorges in the Berchtesgadener Land. I hiked the Weißbachschlucht at the end of March 2022. My impression was that it is very well …

April 12, 2023,Weißbachschlucht, Soleleitungsweg und Thumsee - was für eine Trilogie

The Weißbach Gorge is extraordinary and impressive, one of my highlights in the Berchtesgadener Land. If, like me, you don't like to go there and back, you have to make a tour all around. So today we went along the Soleleitungsweg and unfortunately also a bit along the road. But in the end Lake Thumsee compensated me for all the …

Short vacation day 2:
Today we hiked through the Weissach Gorge. A real piece of cake, simply brilliant.
We started at Thumsee, despite the construction site we were able to complete the entire circuit. We initially overlooked the entrance to the valley at the intersection of Inzell, Bad Reichenhall and Schneizelreuth and walked a little way down the road to …

July 3, 2024,Ab Thumsee in die Weißbachschlucht

Today there were finally narrow paths. And the weather held up for the most part, contrary to all predictions 🌤

Unfortunately, the way to Mauthäusel always leads close to the B305, which makes it extremely noisy. The Weißbach Gorge is highly recommended.
