The Aschauer Klamm is a gorge south of Schneizlreuth in the Berchtesgadener Land district in Bavaria. It has a length of about 2.5 km, with an elevation difference of approximately 150 m at an average elevation of about 650 m. It is traversed by the Aschauer Bach and lies within the Aschau nature reserve.

Due to diverse climatic conditions in a small area, the gorge hosts a varied flora. For example, numerous tree species such as stone pines, larches, beeches, firs, and spruces thrive here.

The gorge is accessible from Schneizlreuth after about a 1 km walk. The starting point is the Haiderhof guesthouse. Narrow but signposted paths often running close to the water lead through the gorge to Oberjettenberg and from there back to Haiderhof.

Roadbook

On the Jakobsweg, we head towards Saalach, then follow the route to Haiderhof. The path through the Aschauerklamm starts directly at Haiderhof. We walk through the gorge, reach the Aschauerklause after about 50 minutes (shelter), then continue a bit further to a hunting lodge. Afterwards, we turn right to the Rastnock service hut, from where we continue towards Oberjettenberg. From Oberjettenberg, we return until this path meets the Jakobsweg again; the final meters lead back to our starting point. You can also drive to Haiderhof by car. However, the road is unpaved and offers little space to pass.
