Seven Mills Trail on the Schnaitbach

Highlight • Trail

This is the most beautiful section of the 7 Mills Trail, as the natural path mostly runs directly along the Schnaitbach stream. This provides repeated, beautiful views of the small stream.

Morgental Forest Trail Along the Omersbach

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A very beautiful, natural hiking trail that runs along the Omersbach stream, with the option to descend directly to the stream. Surprisingly, very few hikers get lost in this area, despite the impressive natural surroundings.

July 12, 2025,Wandern durch Morgental- und Schnaitbachtal und den 7 Mühlen Pfad
I hiked 23 km along the Mill Trail. I extended it a bit. There were already a few trails, but unfortunately, the loud motorcycles were a bit disturbing. In the Morgental valley, it was quieter again. Along the way, I stopped at an inn with a sawmill. The prices there are out of this world...very reasonably priced. Near the end, …

Unfortunately, Saturday was again blocked with appointments, so that Sunday had to be used for our hike this week. We rented a tour from @Iris & Frank for this, which seemed just right for today's hot temperatures. Starting from Fünfbronn, you quickly dive into the forest and mostly walk nearer, sometimes further along small streams and rivers. There are many …

Snowflakes and snowdrops on the Simmersfelder Kirchweg, then only neon green, birdsong and brook gurgling 🥰. Hardly a kilometer without a brook on the side. At the Schneitbach I walked for a long time directly on the mossy bank, Frank on the official path...... he got to see 2 foxes and I had sparkling clean shoes at the meeting point, …

A lonely tour through historic Black Forest valleys.
From Fünfbronn we hike steeply down the Kirchweg into the Schnaitbachtal, where we pass some historic mill ruins. First we reach the Lenzenmühle. We continue to the Hofmühle and the Schildmühle. Over an old bridge with a sandstone vault and a short uphill section you reach the Schildeck ruins. Between the trees …
