Prosseggklamm, Alpine gorge in Matrei in Osttirol, Austria

The Prosseggklamm carves through granite rocks, creating a narrow passage with steep cliffs alongside the flowing Tauernbach at 990 meters elevation point.

The gorge functioned as an essential route to Felber Tauern before the construction of modern roads, connecting different regions through the Austrian Central Alps.

The local community maintains several educational programs about the gorge's geology, focusing on the Bündnerschiefer and Grünschiefer rock formations.

The hiking path stretches 8.3 kilometers with 310 meters elevation gain, requiring approximately three hours to complete and proper mountain equipment.

The Unterer Steiner Waterfall cascades through the gorge, creating distinct geological formations within the Hohe Tauern mountain range environment.
