Giessenbach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The Gießenbachklamm is an easy going gorge. There are a few steps (just under 100) until you're up, so unfortunately not suitable for strollers. Otherwise very suitable for children.
No danger spots and entertaining. No entry.

A great, narrow and varied path leads through the forest here. The moisture from the ditch ensures that the forest is lush and green and that it is pleasantly cool when hiking on warm days.
