Arguably the best canyon in the Salzkammergut
This canyon is quite simply the best in the Salzkammergut. It offers everything that belongs to a proper canyoning tour: big abseils, slides, several jumps of up to 8 m – and magnificent scenery. You should, however, bring good basic fitness and be absolutely free of vertigo. This tour can only be run in completely stable weather conditions. The starting point is the Rettenbach valley in Bad Ischl.
