Sigmund Thun klamm wasserfälle
There are multiple cascades one larger waterfall in the Sigmund Thun klamm (gorge) near Kaprun in the region Tirol, Austria.
From the car park at the “Kraftwerk Informationszentrum” it is a short walk to entrance (small fee required). Almost directly you can enjoy this beautiful gorge, walking on wooden stairs and along several waterfalls. The biggest waterfall has a single drop of appr 20 meter. There is a side path that runs towards/under the waterfall.
The gorge isn’t very big but it looks like one of the nicer gorges I have seen in Austria. In the early ice age, about 14,000 years ago, the Kaprun valley was covered by a huge Glacier. The glacier worked its way down through hard lime and slate rocks. Thousands of years later when the glacier was gone, it left behind a gorge with aa length of 320 meter (32 meter deep).
Since 1938 the Sigmund Thun klamm is a monument and in the early nineties the gorge was opened (again) for public.
