About this water

A mountain stream in the Rauris valley within Hohe Tauern National Park, flowing clear and cold through pristine alpine terrain. Wild brown trout and brook trout in intimate water. The season compresses under the weight of altitude and snowmelt—June through September is your window, and even then, July and August demand patience.
