The valley is a natural, narrow valley with a gurgling stream in the center; this is the most beautiful section of the trail.

The narrow path leading up through the Heimbach valley to the Werlauer Höhe was, for me, the most beautiful section of the route.

A beautiful and peaceful hiking valley. With the current weather conditions (and actually always), you should be a little more careful because the stones and bridge wood are wet and slippery.

The "Werlauer Pilz" lookout point is iconic, and not just because of the view.

Fantastically beautiful hiking on natural paths

A very beautiful trail, but you should be free from vertigo. The path is narrow, and there's a constant precipice on one side. Slightly alpine.

What can I say? A path along the Baybach. That says it all. Here you will find pure nature, idyllic, wildly romantic. So immerse yourself (not in the stream, of course) and just enjoy the moment.
