A natural spectacle to marvel at
Hidden away in the idyllic Voglau district, not far from Abtenau, lies one of the most spectacular natural wonders of the Tennengau region – the Aubach Falls. Here, water thunders down several cascades, enveloping the air in a refreshing mist. Especially on hot summer days, this spot is a true oasis – the fine spray of water provides a pleasant cooling effect, while the incessant rushing sound offers an impressive natural spectacle.
A visit is worthwhile not only for nature lovers, but also for photographers and hikers who want to enjoy the wild beauty of the landscape.
Starting point: Parking lot of Forsthaus Pichl, Voglau (47°35'59.5″N 13°17'54.0″E)
The hike begins at the Pichl parking lot, near the forester's lodge in Voglau. After a short stretch along the road, cross the Aubach stream over a bridge and continue left. Directly at the end of the forest, a path branches off to the left. From here, a well-marked trail leads toward the rushing Aubach Falls. After just a few minutes, you'll feel the spray in the air—a sure sign that you're approaching the waterfall.
Experience at the Aubachfall
A narrow path leads you to a viewing point where you can experience the roaring water up close. It's worth pausing here: listen to the roaring sound of the water, feel the refreshing moisture in the air, and enjoy the raw power of nature.
Continue to the Lammerklamm
After this impressive natural experience, continue your hike. Take the detour to the Aubach Falls and return to the road. Turn left toward the Lammerklamm, a spectacular rocky gorge. Here, the Lammer River has carved its way through the rock over millennia, creating a breathtaking ravine with steep walls and narrow passages.
A well-secured trail leads past impressive whirlpools, pools, and narrow rocky passages. The roaring masses of water rushing through the narrow gorge create an unforgettable spectacle.
Return & Refreshment
After the impressive crossing of the Lammerklamm Gorge, you have two options for the return journey: either hike back to Voglau the same way or treat yourself to a well-deserved break at the cozy "Lammerklause" country inn. Here, you can fortify yourself with regional delicacies and reflect on the experiences of the tour in a relaxed atmosphere. Tip: There's a bus stop right in front of the inn – with your Guest Mobility Ticket, you can take the bus (numbers 470 & 471) to Voglau free of charge. From the bus stop, it's just under half an hour to the starting point of the hike.
