Kaprun Valley and Sigmund-Tun Gorge

Kaprun Valley, Sigmund-Thun Gorge
Austria, Kaprun
At the end of the ice age, about 14,000 years ago, the Kaprun valley was covered by a powerful glacier. As it melted, it slowly slid down, cutting through rocks of hard limestone, slate, and mica. The length of the Zigmund-Tun Gorge is 320 meters, the width is 32 meters.

Thursday. HURRAH! The road to Kaprun has been opened, and we can go to the alpine lake. Our joy was short-lived: having arrived in Kaprun, it turned out that a gondola was taking us to the mountain, but it was no longer possible to climb higher, to the lake, because of the prolonged rain - they were not allowed to. Let's go see the Sigmund-Thun Klamm Gorge. We, in fact, had a different gorge in the plan. We did not know about Sigmund-Thun. But it was a great success, because we were able to compare two very interesting gorges, but they are different.
