The Saalachtal Natural Wonders
The Lower Kaser Gorge was declared a natural monument in 1977. A wildwater stream, which has been eating away at the rock for around 14,000 years, has left in its wake a series of bizarre shapes.
Lamprecht’s Cave, which extends out a total of 44 km, is one of the biggest cave systems in Europe and is currently held to be the world’s biggest navigable cave. In the segment which is open to the general public, you will be able to stroll through the cave along very safe walkways.
The Seisenberg Gorge in Weissbach bei Lofer was created at the end of the last Ice Age. It is within easy reach of the centre of Weissbach, while the tours last about one hour.
