Canyoning Tour Upper Auerklamm

The most beautiful tour for beginners in the Ötztal valley.

For whom:
Sporty beginners

Highlights:
Abseiling height of up to 15 meters possible
Jumps of up to 6 meters possible
Slides up to 13 meters high and 15 meters long are possible

Special features of the tour:
This entry-level tour offers the best complete package of slides, jumping, abseiling, climbing and an inspiring physical challenge for sporty beginners. It usually ends with a desire for MORE!

First, every participant at our base station (located 2 km down the valley in Ötztal) is dressed in a special 5mm neoprene canyoning suit, helmet, hiking boots and a seatbelt. Our minibuses take you up to the top of Ötzerau. At the entrance to the gorge, the state-certified canyoning guide explains and shows participants the correct behavior when canyoning during a detailed safety briefing.

Here we go: We climb over the weir and after a few minutes reach the first slope, which is usually climbed down. We overcome the following rocky obstacle by shimmering our way down 4 m into the pool below using a fixed rope. Following the course of the river, it then goes a longer route through rough terrain, over large boulders and alluvial wood. Further downhill, you descend sideways from a tree into a pool about 5m deep. Now the gorge is getting pretty tight, delicately strung people are now overwhelmed by an oppressive feeling. Then: two rock formations, each 10 to 12 m high. This passage costs quite a bit of effort for one or the other, because here you are abseiled down a fixed rope by the canyoning guide high above the white spray of the two waterfalls lying one behind the other. Immediately afterwards, we are lowered into a 5m deep emerald green water pump right next to one of the thundering waterfalls. No respite: continue over slippery rock slabs to a 4 m dive into a rock hot tub.

 

Now we're getting out of the water for a minute, as the following waterfall is covered with trees in such a way that direct abseiling would be too dangerous. So we climb up a bit and are then abseiled down 15 m into the deep gorge over a thick tree trunk. The curvy course of the gorge goes over piled up alluvial wood and huge rounded stones to the next 10 m high abseiling point, again into a shimmering green pool. Now it's time to swim: one long pool of water after another follows. Then we are right under the Wolf Bridge, the highlight of this tour is in front of us: an approx. 15 m long, rounded natural rock slide. Despite explanations from the guide about the exact posture when sliding and diving and despite his assurances that the water basin at the end of the slide is really deep enough, most people now swallow quite dry. But it's no use — it's time to overcome your inner bastard and get started. Anyone who completely leaves their courage can be abseiled down, it's not like that... After that, it's time to swim again! Over two long pools, we come to the last combination of this tour: a 5 m abseiler into a winding rock maze, then over a 4 m slide into a wide, shallow rock pool. We get off the Auerklamm near the Auenstein ruins via a via ferrata with safety anchored in the rock.

After about 15 minutes walking through wild and almost untouched nature, we reach our barbecue area — We did it! The canyoning guide is now preparing delicious food from the campfire with drinks. Attention! Grilling is only available on special request!

Back at the base, there's a schnapps — you've earned it after this adventure! Who likes to take a hot shower and go to the sauna. At the end, the canyoning guide presents the participants with a certificate of commemoration of the successfully completed and impressive Upper Auerklamm canyoning tour.
