Klaus an der Pyhrnbahn straddles the Steyr River in Upper Austria, where the Pyhrn railway and road corridor have made the narrow valley an important route through the Alps. The Klaus reservoir, formed by a hydroelectric dam on the Steyr, gives the settlement a waterside setting beneath the limestone ranges of the Kalkalpen. Schloss Klaus stands above the water; the historic castle is now home to an evangelical education centre. Forested slopes and mountain routes define the surrounding Steyr valley.
