September 16, 2022,Premiumweg Wasserfallsteig – Wandern im Hochschwarzwald

Very nice, varied path with beautiful paths, always along the Wiese river. Great gorges and water falls. Lonely because the weather was very changeable. Again and again, it was nice.

The start of this gourmet trail is Feldberg Hebehof. First it goes down a beautiful path through a gorge to the Fahler waterfall. Then continue on meadow paths to Todtnau. Here then through the very short but beautiful Wolf Gorge.
And now the really strenuous part of the hike begins. All altitude meters romp about on the last two kilometers. …

The Todtnauer Wasserfallsteig is one of the classics in the Upper Black Forest and a new highlight has recently been added with the new Blackforestline suspension bridge at the Todtnauer waterfalls. A super varied hike :)

It starts in Feldberg (place). From there the path goes downhill for a long time. Again and again we have great views down into …

May 21, 2023,Genießerpfad: Wasserfallsteig

Today was a mega tour.
We parked the car in Todtnau. Since the bus to our starting point only went three quarters of an hour later, we strolled through Todtnau. The Catholic Church is really worth seeing. Now the bus always went uphill to Feldberg-Hebelhof, just before Feldberg-Ort. Here we started the descent through the gorge, past many ski slopes …
