Gießenbachklamm, Narrow canyon and geotope in Kiefersfelden, Germany.

The Giessenbach stream flows through a three-part canyon, featuring steep walls, small waterfalls, and natural erosion formations carved into the main dolomite rock.

The canyon area contains remnants of industrial heritage, including a water wheel that previously served the local water supply system in the Kiefersfelden region.

In 2014, the canyon hosted the second Light and Music Performance 'Felsenzauber', which attracted 8,000 visitors to experience this natural formation.

The front section of the canyon measures 250 meters in length, 40 meters in width, and reaches an elevation of 580 meters, accessible through 190 steps from the power plant.

The canyon features sinter formations created by mineral-rich water deposits, contributing to scientific research and local biodiversity studies.
