Location: Murrhardt, Rems-Murr-Kreis, Stuttgart District, Baden-Württemberg, Germany
Here the Hörschbach drops over the "Engelhofer Platte", a compact, solid Steinmergelbank about 5 meters in depth. The softer layers of marl underneath provide less resistance to erosion from stream water and are thus removed much faster, creating the beautiful waterfall.
Even in winter when the waterfall partly or sometimes even almost completely freezes and snow is absolutely worth seeing!
The waterfall is easily reached from a parking lot very close by. Of course, he is also very good in touring or Murrhardt involve. And while you're there, do not miss the rest of the Hörschbach gorge. In the gorge, good footwear and sure-footedness are essential.

For geocachers a wonderful combination and an absolute recommendation. Complete the hike in conjunction with the Earthcache GC1XE83. A nature experience of a special kind.
Opportunity to stop in the "waterfall restaurant". The waterfall road meets exactly this stop. If you put one lap back, it's pretty much in the middle of the track.

Above the waterfall there is a slide to open. After opening the slide at the reservoir above the Hinterer Hörschbach waterfall, the masses of water pour with roar on the steep slope.
