Tscheppaschlucht

The Tscheppaschlucht is a ravine in the Carinthian Alps with sheer rock walls, multiple waterfalls, and a secured pathway for visitors. Water has carved deep channels into the stone, creating pools and white rapids at several points along the route.

The gorge was named after Peter Tschauko, who discovered and opened the site to the public in the 1800s. Over time it became a popular hiking destination in the Carinthian region.

The gorge draws visitors who want to experience the mountain landscape and observe nature up close. People come here to walk through the rocks and feel the power of the water cutting through the valley.

The pathway through the gorge is secured with bridges and railings to help you walk safely. Watch for slippery spots when it is wet and wear shoes with good grip for stable footing.

At several points you can stand on viewing platforms and watch water flowing through tight rock passages right below you. Some of these spots have names like Devil's Bridge and Tschauko Falls, showing how long this place has been known to visitors.
