The Sölk stream has been used for thousands of years as a flowstone for the hard marble stone and proves the impressive power of nature. From Corsica to the water temperature. But compare for yourself! Walk through the Strub and discover the unique diversity of our nature!
A hike through the Strubschlucht gorge near Schloss Großsölk takes you to the confluence of the Großsölk and Kleinsölk streams. There you can see how the two streams have carved their way through the marble rock. You walk for approx. 1/2 hour to the gorge, where you can cross the Kleinsölk and Großsölk streams over 2 bridges, and the calm waters and tranquillity invite you to linger on the banks. This popular hike takes approx. 1 hour and requires sturdy footwear.
The Strubschlucht can be hiked from both Sölktäler valleys:
Starting point Großsölktal: Parking lot Schloss Großsölk - here still approx. 150 m on the country road into the valley until a tractor path branches off to the right.
Starting point Kleinsölktal: Past the Sölker marble works to the next parking lot next to the country road - here via Gehöft vlg. Köck farm to the gorge.
