    Tips

    February 12, 2021

    The Teufelsgraben is a small gorge with two springs flowing down. A secured path with stairs leads down into the relatively natural Teufelsgraben. In the Teufelsgraben the little stream Essiggraben is created in the Hersbrucker Buchgebiet, heavy rains transform the leisurely babbling stream "Essiggraben" into a raging river. (Night from June 29th to June 30th 2005)

      When it is wet, the path downhill can be quite slippery.

          Impressive in winter when the watercourse is partially frozen.
