Hike through Notgasse canyon

Tour description

The Notgasse at the foot of the Stoderzinken represents a path connection from Gröbming to the higher mountain pastures. The path through a canyon, which is only accessible to pedestrians, was used by alpine people, mule pickers and charcoal burning workers. The impressive gorge with rock walls up to 60 meters high and the historical rock carvings offer the visitor an aura of mystery and mystique.

The tourist association's weekly program includes guided hikes through the Notgasse in the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Map, elevation profile & further information

When we reach the forest road, we keep left and hike via the Brandalm to the Rahnstube and further to the Seeboden and through the romantic “ovens” (Gröbminger Öfen) to the parking area at the Kneipp facility Lend.

Walking time from the end of the gorge: 2 hours.

Towards Gröbming, towards Stoderstraße, Kirchplatz 15A hiking guide brings you to the parking area.
By bus you come to the bus station Gröbming and from there you walk approx. 5 minutes to the tourist office.

We recommend walking this tour not without good maps and a guide. The way is bad and rocky and even if you have detailed information how to find the the pictographs, you can hardly find them.

Safe footwear

Tour at your own risk! No liability will be accepted for any given or occurring alpine driving (weather, etc.).

Sections of this hiking trail are part of the northern route of the long-distance hiking trail "From glacier to wine".
