Gorgeous Lights 14 June - 25 October 2024

With its unique rock formations, craggy rock faces and foaming water, the Sigmund Thun Gorge near Kaprun is a miracle of nature: 320 metres long and 30 metres deep, the water has forced its way through the rock here. As part of the "Gorgeous Lights" spectacle, the gorge is illuminates by colourful lights every week during the summer months, and invites you to take a mystical walk.

When evening falls, the lights in the Sigmund Thun Gorge illuminate the rocks and water in bright colours: the formations of stone and thundering masses of water seem even more magical than in daylight. An experience for the whole family.
