From the Silberkarklamm parking lot, you will enter a beautiful world of cascades, rock walls and a wildly romantic scenery. Following the wooden stairway, across wild waters up to the Silberkarhütte is a truly exciting adventure for all ages. 

You can also combine this hike with the 'Höhenweg Wald und Wurzelsteig' leading you through the woods, all the way back to the starting point.

Destination

Gorge Entry

Turn-by-turn directions

Walk to the entry point of the gorge, where the trail turns into a narrow path - leading onto stairs and ladders across wild waters and through steep rock walls.  After a beautiful yet demanding walk, the gorge opens up to an impressive coombe. From there, it’s a 20-minute walk to Silberkar hut.

For the way back you can take the alpine high route - a very steep, impressive path. Starting to the left of the hut it leads to a great viewpoint and follows through a root covered trail to a fork. Follow the left, back to the starting point.

Nette Runde. Der Höhenweg ist für sehr kleine Kinder nicht geeignet
