A beautiful hike through a truly special valley. From Dörsbach, the trail ascends in numerous steps through the gorge, past many "waterfalls" over which the Wäschbach stream carves its way through the steep valley. Not a hike for beginners!

This popular destination can be reached via a hiking trail. Coming from Nassau, hike through the Mühlbach Valley past the fish ponds to the first newly constructed footbridge. Continue past the path toward Singhofen. The Teufesdell Waterfall is fed by the local "Kernbach," a tributary of the Mühlbach. The Kernbach plunges four meters into the depths here.
