With snacks in your backpack through the Stoissengraben

Fancy going for a short hike even on a hot summer’s day? Then come with us through the Stoissengraben. This wide gorge offers a perfect change of pace from a hike up to an alpine pasture and is suitable for all ages. Of course, the right refreshments should not be missing. And as there are no places to stop for refreshments along the way, we’ll also show you how to make sure you’re well-stocked for your hike. Let’s go!

Enjoyment to go

Don’t despair – that’s the motto when there’s nowhere to stop for a bite to eat on a hike. Because with the right preparation, you’ll be perfectly equipped, even when it comes to food. Simply pop into our direct-sales outlets and local producers. They’ll quickly supply you with fresh produce and traditional delicacies. The Leogang village shop is also a great place to go if you need a quick, delicious snack. The range extends from fresh farmhouse bread to a wide variety of sausage and cheese products, right through to milk and yoghurt products.

Get started with the right supplies

Once we’ve packed everything up, we’re off. The walk starts from the Stoissengraben car park which is situated to the right of the B311 (Pinzgau main road) heading towards Lofer.

A wide gravel path runs alongside the stream through the beautiful natural forest reserve, which delights young and old alike. During these leisurely walks, you can also marvel at a variety of different animals and plants. What’s more, the cool mountain water offers the chance to take a quick dip – perfect on a hot summer’s day.

Natural spectacle included

For sure-footed hikers, another attraction waits at the end of the trench. There you will find a large waterfall. But be careful - the path is only suitable for experienced hikers.

After we have hiked diligently through the ditch, we are now looking for a nice place to enjoy our snacks. We hope you also have fun exploring the Stoissengraben!
