Your five stages

Mandling to Schladming Schladming to Aich Aich to Öblarn Öblarn to Wörschach Wörschach to Admont

Mandling to Schladming

WW2+ 10

In this sector, the river Enns is still quite young and at medium water levels it is rated as white-water class 2+. At low water levels there might be more technical difficulties, such as rocks which should be avoided. At high water levels, the river Enns becomes rather fast and powerful.

Schladming to Aich

WW1 11

In this sector, the river Enns is still a small, alpine river with fast currents and at medium water levels it is rated as white-water class 1. At low water-levels you have to pay attention to rocks and wooden piles in the course of the river.

Aich to Öblarn

WW 1- 15

At this stage, the river Enns carries more water due to the many small influxes from the surrounding mountain valleys. At medium water levels, this section of the river is rated as calm-water class 2 to 3 with short stretches of white-water class 1.

Öblarn to Wörschach

ZW 2 + 17

In this sector, the Enns already presents itself as a medium-sized river. Calm waters, class 2 to 3, await you there. In the middle of the river you’ll encounter almost no obstacles, but you should always stay alert, because every river constantly changes.

Wörschach to Admont

ZW 2 27

On this stage, which is the longest part of the whole tour, flowing water, class 1-2 awaits you before you reach Admont. From beginners to professional paddlers, everyone gets one’s money’s worth here.
