- This hiking tour is my absolute favourite! The Wildewasser hike is located in the region of Schladming-Rohrmoos, in the Schladminger Tauern mountain range in Styria, Austria. From the Untertal valley, the hike starts with steep walk along the lower waterfall, with several viewing platforms, where you can feel the force, the vibrance, the fascination of every single droplet of the falling waters all the way up to the majestic Riesachwassefall. After which comes the ultimate kick, the 50-meter-long steel rope suspension bridge at a dizzying height over the gorge.
The bridge is at the start of the alpine trail ‘Höllschlucht’, loosely translated as ‘thru hell’. I think the name is very appropriate as it is a network of metal stairs and steel ropes offering support while climbing over and under giant boulders in the gorge towards Riesachsee. The power of the water can be seen especially well in the impressive washouts in the rock. There are several viewing walkways into the gorge.
Once you come out of the forest, the beautiful, green alpine meadows open up ahead and the trail continues to the deep green Riesachsee (1338 m.), framed by forests and high mountain peaks. Here, I recommend to take a little break and soak in all the beauty surrounding you.
The trail then continues along the lake, thru alpine landscape, with several alpine huts and grazing cattle, to the moderately steep ascent to the Preintalehütte (1657m.). Here, you can overnight or just rest and enjoy the views of the valley. This Hütte is at an intersection of many multi-day hiking trails.

I love it! Easy you say. Such beautiful scenery. Makes you want to do it. Love the waterfalls. I visited Estes Park Colorado (I have a video of it) last year. Was absolutely gorgeous. I love the land God has made. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful place.👩🏾🌾😍👍🏾
I love Colorado too, visited it several times...somehow I was always drawn to the mountains, without even realising it....I will check out your video from Estes Park. Thanks for watching. Eva.
OMG what a beautiful day! Would love to take that hike!
Well, come on over and I will take you guys there... there so many places such as this one, just a short drive from our house...thanks for watching, miss you guys.
Thanks. Great video! Is this trail do able for a dog?
Hi, most of the trail is on a woodland trail, so that is no problem for a dog. But there is a large part that goes thru a gorge/rocks and here is a lot of stairs and foot-support that is built out of a metal grid system, and that could be uncomfortable for dogs paws to step on. On the other hand, I think dog will manage, because it is always a section from grid and then woodland trail section again. Hope this helps. Eva
