Entrance to the Bürs Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

Bürser Gorge, natural monument, Bürs
Natural monument in the Brandnertal
The Bürser Gorge is a natural monument with some geological features. A varied hike is guaranteed, as stairs and bridges complement the exciting path along the gorge.
Ice and water have formed this charming landscape near Bürs. After the glaciers retreated, the Alvier stream dug into its own gravel and thus formed the current gorge over the last 10,000 years.
Interesting information about this can be found on the information boards along the path.

Bürserschlucht Trail

Highlight • Gorge

Hike through the Bürser Gorge
Signposted paths lead from the center of Bürs to the entrance to the gorge. The path through the gorge is wonderfully varied: natural paths lead over stones and steps, wooden bridges keep crossing the Alvierbach and the impressive waterfall is a real highlight on the hike through the Bürser gorge!
From the waterfall it goes steeply uphill through the forest to the edge of the gorge, which is the highest point of the route at around 800m. The great view over the Brandnertal invites you to linger for a while. The path leads downhill past the so-called "Kuhloch", a small dry gorge into which the Alvier once dug itself. Walk through the boulders to Brandnerstraße and back to Bürs.

Tufa spring in the Bürs Gorge

Highlight • Waterfall

Quelltuff is strongly calcareous water, which releases the lime on the surface again and quasi "petrifies".

Bürs Gorge Trail

Highlight • Gorge

The Bürser Gorge was formed by the interplay of water and ice after the retreat of the glaciers about 10,000 years ago. The Alvierbach stream created a spectacular, almost jungle-like landscape with moss-covered rocks and a rich flora.

Adventurous bridge constructions lead through the wild Bürser Gorge. Non-slip shoes are recommended on rainy days, as the wooden walkways can be quite slippery!

This is where the hike through the gorge actually begins or ends.
A nice little place to rest.
