According to the legend, the high valley was originally covered by a lake, with a dragon living on its shores. A farmer killed the dragon and during its death struggle, it smashed the rocks which retained the lake. The water poured down through the resulting channel, the Kundler Klamm, towards the Inn valley and the high valley was released.
It is a great place, both in summer or in winter, perfect for a vacation in family spent in the middle of the nature.
