About this audio guide
This guide to the Mühlauer Klamm gorge above Innsbruck follows the folklore that grew up around a stream nobody could tame. It traces the legend of a slain Tatzlwurm said to have turned the water red, and the story behind the gorge's oddly named bridge, worn down again and again by avalanches and floodwater. Along the way it passes the Devil's Pulpit and the witch's kitchen cave tucked into the rock. Best heard walking in from the Schweinsbrücke, where the trail into the gorge begins.
