A gorge (or ‘klamm’ in German) is a narrow, steep, rocky valley often weathered by erosion thanks to the water body flowing through it. I truly believe that gorges are a sight to behold! The precariously laid footpaths would constitute a gorge hike as a perfect, beginner friendly adventure. In this blog, I list out 5 such hikes which are bound to make ou fall in love with the outdoors!
