    Hiking

    The Deichselbach, which rises from several sources here, leaves behind a staircase made of tufa, which reaches about 20m into the valley. It is particularly worth coming here if there have been rainy days before.

    Hiking

    Wonderful forest path, at some point you come to these waterfalls and if you go very close, one means, you are in another world or a kind of miniature edition of Rivendell ;-)

    Hiking

    In winter with frosty temperatures you can admire ingenious ice formations on the stream and on the sinter steps.
