This beautiful Kerbtal (red marking) is called "Hell" and is really fun to walk through: unspoilt, narrow and dark, almost a bit mystical. The only drawback: too short. At the lower exit there is an interesting information board that explains the ecological importance and the previous year's renaturation measures and points out the rarity of this valley shape in the region. The best thing to do is walk down here from the Kuhringsberg, where you can go straight down to hell at the junction. If you have any concerns, just send a candidate up and see how they fare below. I did exactly that.

Great, natural valley at the foot of the Kuhringsberg. For hiking or mountain biking.

Forest and water changes The deeply cut valley "Hölle" owes its name to the dark spruce trees that once grew here in large numbers and created a mystical atmosphere. It must have always been cool and damp here. Two springs fed the Höllbach, and precipitation collected on the valley floor. This is how shrubs, ferns, reeds and moss grew luxuriantly and a moor was created. In the 1930s, the area was crossed with drainage ditches in order to plant trees of North American origin on the drained areas. The forest landscape changed and the moor became invisible. But in some places the spruce trees, the original English oak forest and the moorland soil survived. That is why the "Hölle" is part of the Calauer Schweiz flora-fauna-habitat area, which is part of the Europe-wide NATURA 2000 protected area network. There will no longer be any commercial use of the "Hölle".
