Hittisau | across bridges, through the gorge

Hittisau - centre of town (790 m) - Känzele View (Häleisen, 820 m) - Kommabrücke (760 m) - Engenlochschlucht - Hittisau

At the end of the Ice Age, a lake emerged at the foot of the Hochhäderich. The Bolgenach carved its path out of the cliffs which formed the "dam wall" of the lake. And so the Komma gorge arose. For almost 300 years, the Komma bridge has been crossing the river and the gorge at a height of 15 m: this bridge is the oldest covered bridge in the province. Along the Bolgenach, the water ramble takes you across a suspension bridge, past the wild yet romantic Engenloch gorge.
