The Hüttenwaldschlucht in Spiegelberg is a beautiful, unspoilt stream valley in the Swabian-Franconian Forest. It is known for its striking sandstone rock faces, semi-caves and a small waterfall. The path through the gorge is narrow and slippery in wet weather, so sturdy footwear is required. It offers hikers a scenic and romantic experience. There are also rope-secured trail sections at dangerous spots to ensure hikers' safety

A small trickle "springs" at the spirit cave, which becomes a waterfall worth seeing after heavy rain. The drainage takes place directly across the path, a kind of ford. Unfortunately, the associated section has been completely renewed. Before that, a narrow, rooty path on a small steep slope high above the Murr. . . Pushing a trekking bike was always the order of the day here. Too bad, many trees have now been felled, the path widened and paved, it can now also be used with trekking bikes, but has clearly lost its beautiful character.
