July 30, 2025, Exposed Beech Roots in Wolfsschlucht

Erosion and the steep gradient of the gorge have exposed the roots of the ancient beech trees – they literally dig into the moss-covered rocks and, in some cases, hang freely over the hiking trail. The tangle of roots appears like a natural work of art, lending the gorge an almost mystical atmosphere.
