Liechtensteinklamm

Gorges and Canyons

Liechtensteinklamm is a gorge in Austria near St Johann im Pongau, about 50 kilometers south of Salzburg, running 4 kilometers with walls up to 300 meters high. Prince Johann II of Liechtenstein donated 600 guilders toward work to expand access to the gorge, which today draws about 100,000 visitors a year and ends at a waterfall.
