Suspension bridge at Stubnerkogel

On the Stubnerkogel "hangs" the infamous suspension bridge, 140 metres long and with a drop of over 28 metres. The bridge hangs 2400 metres above sea level, making it Europe's highest suspension bridge. The bridge is transparent and can take anyone's breath away and is not at all recommended if there is a fear of heights among family members. There's a bit more solid ground underfoot on the Glocknerblick viewing platform; enjoy the fresh mountain air in your lungs and let your eyes wander over the rugged and mountainous landscape, but remember your camera to capture the beautiful views.

Liechtenstein Gorge

Liechtensteinklamm is one of the Alps’ most dramatic natural attractions, located near St. Johann im Pongau in Salzburg. This gorge stretches roughly 4 km long with canyon walls rising up to 300 m high—some sections narrow to just a few meters. Visitors can explore a 1 km accessible pathway of wooden walkways, bridges, tunnels, and the impressive 30-meter “Helix” spiral staircase added after recent renovations. The trail leads to a waterfall and offers views that feel both powerful and peaceful thanks to misty air, mossy cliffs, and cascading streams.
