Gilfenklamm, Narrow canyon in Ratschings, Italy
The Gilfenklamm extends 2.5 kilometers through white marble walls, with wooden bridges and walkways crossing the Rio Racines mountain stream.
The canyon's public access started in 1896 when the Austrian Alpine Club constructed pathways, marking the beginning of organized tourism in this natural formation.
The surrounding area has supplied marble for significant architectural works, including the construction materials used in the Court Church of Innsbruck.
Visitors can explore the canyon daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with extended hours until 6:00 PM during July and August for 7 euros per adult.
The Rio Racines brook drops 200 meters in altitude through the gorge, creating a series of waterfalls with the highest reaching 15 meters.
