The water of the Breitach rushes through a narrow gorge made up of almost hundred-meter-high, partly overhanging rock walls, falls further into the depths over rocky banks and sprays fine drops of water that create a mystical atmosphere. An unforgettable natural spectacle.

The Breitachklamm is the deepest rocky gorge in Europe, which can be hiked over a length of 1.5 kilometers via easily accessible and secured paths. On hot summer days it is refreshingly cool here, in winter the gorge is one of the only ones open. You can find further information at: breitachklamm.com.

Hiking

Torchlight hike in the winter through the Breitachklamm very impressive! In any case, put it on really warm, it's freezing cold!

Hiking

The Breitach forces itself near Tiefenbach through a wild gorge, which is accessible to visitors. Again and again it comes to heavy natural influences, be it by snow avalanches or rockfalls, as most recently in 1995, where the whole gorge has been devastated.
