Excursion Destinations in the Saalachtal
The Vorderkaser Gorge is a natural monument which has to be seen to be believed. For thousands of years, a stream has been eating its way down into the rock. Today’s gorge is some 400 metres long, 80 metres deep and six metres wide. Via boardwalks and stairways, you and your children can explore this natural spectacle. Even closer to the hotel is Seisenberg Gorge near Lofer. Leaving directly from town, you can tour this 600 metres-long gorge in about one hour. This beautiful natural feature also serves as a starting point for numerous hikes in the SalzburgerLand.
As a poor-weather alternative, there is nowhere better than Lamprecht’s Cave. The public section of this enormous cave system can be explored via walkways, which means this excursion is also ideal with kids. It pushes some 700 metres into the mountain, with visitors having to tackle around 70 vertical metres during their walk. With a total length of some 51 kilometres, the Lamprechtshöhle is one of the world’s most extensive cave systems.
