Steep steps, clinging to weathered rock faces, lead up this gorge, where a picnic hut with a barbecue area invites you to a leisurely snack. After further steps along the rocks, magnificent views of the valley repeatedly open up.

In the old days, the people of Hossingen actually had to climb down a ladder when they needed to go down into the valley.

It's just fun to climb the "ladder" between the rocks.
