    Those who still have the desire and stamina can continue hiking further into the Wimbachgries

    Roadbook

    We start at the Wimbach Bridge and head south to walk along the Wimbach, first across meadows, then through light forest. Afterwards, you reach the spectacular Wimbach Gorge, whose first footbridge was built by Ramsau woodworkers for the timber rafting to the saltworks. On the route, we can always follow the signposted path towards the Wimbachgries Hut. After reaching the debris flow of the Wimbachgries, you now walk gently uphill to the managed Wimbach Castle.

    Hallo, ist schon eine Weile her aber ich meine um die 2 Stunden ganz gemütlich. Kaum Höhenmeter und guter breiter Wanderweg. Wir haben ca 2 Stunden gebraucht mit Klamm und zwischendurch mussten die Kids noch forschen und spielen. Ohne dem würde ich 60 bis 90 Minuten tippen.

    Ja, 90 Minuten in gemütlichem Tempo mit viel schauen in der Klamm vom Parkplatz bis zum Wimbachschloß. Sind ca. 4,5 Km und ca. 300Hm. Die merkt man aber kaum. Wir haben für Hin- & Rückweg 2:05Stunden reine Gehzeit gebraucht.

    Nein, die Wimbachklamm ist leider noch gesperrt
    July 29, 2021

    Zur Zeit noch geschlossen, der Weg oberhalb der Klamm ist offen. Zum Wimbachschloß oder zur Wimbachgrieshütte kommt man also. Den aktuellen Status kann man hier nachschauen: https://www.berchtesgaden.de/ausflugsziele/sehenswuerdigkeiten/geoeffnete-ausflugsziele
