Vorderkaserklamm, Natural canyon system in Sankt Martin bei Lofer, Austria.
The Ödenbach stream flows through this 400-meter-long gorge, reaching depths of 80 meters with walls narrowing to 80 centimeters at the bottom point.
The formation of this canyon began 14,000 years ago when melting glacial waters carved through the rock formations after the last Ice Age period.
Since its opening to the public in 1882, the gorge has integrated 51 wooden footbridges and 373 steps to allow visitors to explore its geological features.
The gorge operates from May through October, with extended hours during July and August, and offers free admission with the Salzburger Saalachtal Card.
The Stone Age Experience Trail leading to the gorge features wooden climbing stations and full-size replicas of prehistoric animals including a mammoth.
