Wutach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

We hiked in the Wutachschlucht from the Wutachmühle to the Schattenmühle (around 13 kilometers). Good footwear and sure-footedness are recommended. Some passages are quite narrow, rocky and slippery. Walking sticks …

The largest waterfall in the Ravenna Gorge. You can only get there directly off the path. Surefootedness is definitely required.

Gauchachschlucht

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The Gauchach is for me personally the nicer part of the gorge! Here you often walk very close to the water, sometimes it is even necessary to walk over stones …

Gauchach Waterfall

This stair waterfall is striking and yet quite large for such a small stream. Very nice photo motif.

Confluence of Haslach and Gutach (Source of the Wutach)

Highlight • River

At the confluence of the Haslach and Gutach to form the Wutach, there is a bench that invites you to linger in this energetic, idyllic place. Watch, relax, enjoy the living power of the water and draw strength for yourself.

Gauchach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Absolutely fantastic and recommended for the summer months. With a lot of water there is a risk of wet feet in some places.

Do not walk when it is wet …
