A beautiful hike through a truly special valley. From Dörsbach, the trail ascends in numerous steps through the gorge, past many "waterfalls" over which the Wäschbach stream carves its way through the steep valley. Not a hike for beginners!

Steep path over rocks and steps along a small stream with many interesting little waterfalls, gullies and pools in the slate - hence the name 19 holes. Very nice!! Sure-footedness required.

The water of the gorge runs over 15 steps with a height of 40 meters into the Dönsbach. Of these, 4 rock steps have a height difference of 3 meters each.

The Brunnenbach rises near Bremberg, probably in the 12th century. was originally called Brunnenbach. The valley encloses the hill on which the ruins of the Brunnenberg monastery lie, to the east and north, where the Brunnenbach flows into the Lahn. The stream flows down the steep valley over a few stone steps. Conversely, this also means for hikers that you have to go up a very steep valley if you want to get to the monastery ruins.
