An easy hiking trail through the Saußbach Gorge, but not suitable for strollers. Hiking trail 1 through the gorge is very well marked.

Nice tour through the Saußbachklamm, the way back goes mostly through the village. On the way back don't forget to visit the market square.

Wow, what a great valley. Wild water, mossy stones and sun shining through the trees. Perfect. 😍😍

The wild and romantic Saussbach Gorge with its easy-to-walk paths and its deeply cut ravine, how beautiful a small piece of land can be 😍😍😍
