Hahnenfalzweg Nature Trail

Highlight • Trail

This section of the Hanhenfalzweg hasn't been used as a farm track for some time. This has created a beautiful trail. It's a great alternative to the "forest highways" often …

A very nice excursion destination with fantastic panoramic views of the Black Forest. The Teufelsmühle forest inn is a good place to stop for refreshments. A launching point for hang gliders and paragliders.

March 27, 2022,AugenBlicke - über den Schweizerkopf zur Teufelsmühle

After an ascent over a rather boring tar road, the round leads to the Teufelsmühle at a rather constant level. There are always beautiful views to the left and right of this high trail. The highlight is of course the view from the Teufelsmühle on the Rhine plain. Then it's back to the Hahnenfalz hut and then back down to …

February 27, 2022,AugenBlick-Runde Bad Herrenalb: Schnee, Schweizerkopf und Teufelsmühle

Very nice tour in the snow. Paths are still easy to walk on. With a blue sky, a beautiful view, sunshine and a blanket of snow, the trip was absolutely worth it.

January 22, 2023,🅿️Oberes Geistal|Teufelsmühle|Hahnenfalzhütte☕| Weithäusleplatz

Today I took part in a hike for everyone organized by DAV Ettlingen. Start was the Oberes Geistal car park at 9:30 a.m. there was still a lot of space. It went straight up to the Hahnenfalzhütte and we started sweating profusely... vertical meters and fresh snow. In the direction of the Teufelsmühle we then took a path which one …

November 17, 2024,AugenBlick Runde zur Teufelsmühle

We are planning a hike to the Teufelsmühle for our PWV Insheim. Today the views were not very nice, a great view from the Schweizer-Kopf-Hütte was only possible to a limited extent today. But in retrospect we were lucky here, because when we arrived at the Hahnenfelshütte, several mountains had already disappeared in the fog. At the Teufelsmühle we had …

October 7, 2021,Nordschwarzwald - Rundweg Gaistal zur Teufelsmühle

Wonderful, not too strenuous hike. The starting point at the Talwiesenschenke saves you a few meters of altitude, of course you can also start directly in Bad Herrenalb.
The Gasthaus an der Teufelsmühle is currently closed, the Talwiesenschenke can only be recommended.

August 26, 2025,AugenBlick-Runde Bad Herrenalb Teufelsmühle - Schweizerkopf 🍀☀️🌳🫶🙋‍♀️

Hello everyone,

Today I was out alone because there was no water and lots of sunny stretches. Not for Zoya.🙏🏻
But she had a great time with her mom. 😎

I wanted to go on a hike today with lots of peace and quiet and beautiful views. The Black Forest is perfect for that, and I found this trail.
I've …

September 20, 2025,Vom Gaistal zur Teufelsmühle

Today we set off from the Talwiesenschänke in the Gaistal Valley, where there's a large parking lot. The trail initially leads away from the Teufelsmühle (Devil's Mill) before returning to the Teufelsmühle via scenic heights. The road closure from the previous day was still in place, but the route was easily adapted via the Albursprungweg (Albur Spring Trail).

March 19, 2025,Bad Herrenalb-Gaistal: AugenBlick-Runde mit Schweizerkopf, Teufelsmühle

The AugenBlick loop climbs gently from the starting point to Weithäusleplatz. The Westweg trail continues past Himmelsliegen (sky loungers) to the fantastic view from AugenBlick at the Schweizerkopfhütte. The trail branches off at the Hahnenfalzhütte, which is occasionally open for dining. The further loop via the Steinerne Sitzbank (stone bench) to the Teufelsmühle (devil's mill) should definitely be included. At …
