In the Olympic region Seefeld, in the little village of Leutasch, you can visit a very impressive gorge. The parking space and the gate to the legendary gorge are located in the village of Schanz, close to the German border. This is also where the walk across the world of ghosts and elfs starts…
The Leutaschklamm gorge can be explored on two different paths. The 3 km long Klammgeistweg path starts at the parking lot and leads into the gorge to a panorama bridge, where you return on a forest road. Along your walk the ghost of the gorge will brake secrets about his reign (approx. 1.5 hours).
The goblin path, however, takes you from the Klamm kiosk in Mittenwald into the Leutaschklamm gorge and meets the Klammgeistweg path at the panorama bridge. On this path goblins inform you about glaciers, stones and much more (approx. 1 hour).
The sign, unilingual German, shows a beautiful image of Primula Auricula also known as Bear's Ears. The plant grows on basic rocks in the mountain ranges of central Europe, including the western Alps, Jura mountains, the Vosges, the Black Forest and the Tatra Mountains. It blooms between the months of May and July.
