Dripping in Maria Alm | NDM00247 |
Maria Alm am Steinernen Meer KG: Hinterthal GrStNr: 3/6; 29/5 location |
The "Triefen" is a water outlet over an impermeable rock layer, which is about 2-3 m above the Urslau flowing below . This creates a rain-like drip curtain of approx. 100 m length, which occurs regardless of the weather. The natural formation consists of the central part of a pending, very hard conglomerate body opened up by the Urslau. It is a Permian base conglomerate, a rock from the Variscan orogeny that looks like limestone towards the top. A continuous spring horizon runs horizontally through this conglomerate , which determines the hydrological peculiarity of the core area of the "Triefen". A tufa-like moss ceiling corridor formed over a large area. A total of 39 deciduous and 16 liverwort species as well as 96 fern and vascular plant species could be detected. The natural appearance of the "Triefen" is considered unique in the province of Salzburg in terms of its character, shape and extent and gives the landscape a special character. | 0.21 ha | 11/23/2001 |

Leitenkammerklamm | NDM00248 |

The Leitenkammerklamm is located in the Wildgerlostal at an altitude of around 1540 m . The geological subsoil is characterized by the appearance of eye and flaser gneiss with aplitic gneiss deposits. The Gerlosbach cut the gorge into a steep step in the valley. The immediate area of the gorge is approx. 100 m long and 5 to 20 m wide. The towering rock walls form gorges, forms of erosion such as washouts, whirlpool holes and pools structure the gorge, through which a footbridge leads. A hiking trail leads through the accompanying sub-alpine forest elements. Due to the pronounced forms of erosion, the gorge is also of scientific interest. A protective strip about 80 m wide is included on both sides of the natural monument. | 4.82 ha | 03/04/2002 |
