Hiking

The ten-kilometer-long Ehrbachklamm dream loop, which starts in Oppenhausen, impresses with its spectacular panoramic and deep views. From the hiking car park you follow the tour into the forest, where the first wonderful panorama awaits you at Beulslay. Then you go down to the Stierwiese rest area and then you reach the wildly romantic Ehrbachklamm with its gorgeous waterfalls and steep valley slopes.

From the gorge, the dream loop zigzags you up to the next viewpoint - your view stretches far over the wooded hills. You continue past Peterslay to the valley of the Eltesbächelchen and then head uphill again to the next panoramic spot. You reach the Schäferbürchen spring via the Winkelholzberg and a little later you arrive back at the starting point.

View of Ehrbachtal from Beulslay

Highlight • Viewpoint

Bench with a wonderful view of the valley. The path is like a ridge.
Then the path goes downhill.

Hundsquelle Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

This small waterfall is from a side arm. It lies inconspicuously about 5 meters above the path.

View of Schloss Schöneck and Ehrbachtal

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great vantage point, which can be reached after about 200 meters from the Ehrbachklamm - and where a bench and a table invite you directly to (breather) break, including the view of Schloss Schöneck, which can be seen in about 1800m distance.

Wooden Statue of the Hunter

Highlight • Monument

When you see this figure, you know that the wonderful Ehrbachklamm dream loop is almost over. Time for the final sprint.

By chance I was informed about this fantastic tour.
After completing it I can say that the term fantastic is absolutely accurate.

A very nice tour, in the most beautiful late autumn weather. It was very warm. What was very unpleasant was that there was a handkerchief every 30m on or right next to the path. I can not understand this. Is this the idea of a dream loop for some people? Dear hiking colleagues, if you think you have to do …

A great tour, I highly recommend it. However, sturdy shoes are essential, as there will be some climbing, some steep, uphill.

A beautiful route. First next to the stream, then the 'rocky' section, with beautiful views. And a lot of sand lizards 🦎

Rest day with a surprise 😅... After my self-imposed rest day, with the caravan spotlessly clean and all the fluids hauled in and out, I had the idea for a little walk... Yesterday I saw a sign for the Ehrbach Gorge... 9 km long. I don't normally wear shoes for that 😅, but it's enough for a walk... Hehe, what …

With a (large) dog rather difficult to do because there are ladders in between ... we had to walk through the stream with our large dog, who does not fit under our arms
