A wonderful natural experience. Almost like a jungle, you hike uphill beneath gigantic cliffs in the valley.

The "Magental" in the Göppingen district:
- beautiful, wild and romantic valley
- unspoilt landscape with partially fallen trees and many rock formations
- surefootedness highly recommended
- depending on the weather, you may have to cross the stream 1-2 times (you may get wet feet).
- sometimes very narrow forest path
- already very impressive in winter (was there in March), how great is it in spring/summer with "full" vegetation and sunshine!
- for me one of the most beautiful valleys of this type that I have had the pleasure of visiting

A small path that is not so easy to walk, partly due to fallen trees, leads through the wild and romantic natural valley.

Currently closed due to storm damage. You can get through at your own risk. Two or three water crossings over stones necessary.

Arid landscape, with fallen trees and many bizarre rock formations. At the end of the valley, a detour to the rye needle is possible.

A scenic side valley with steep cliffs and a moss-green stream bed.

Wonderful route through a natural wild forest like out of a picture book. Sturdy shoes are mandatory, especially if it rained the days before.

Forest romantic - wild romantic / wonderful and adventurous, climbing over trees or crawling under them (currently very muddy, but still great)

An impressive and beautiful path. It feels very long. You literally walk over hill and dale.

The Magental was closed in 2022 after a storm because of the many fallen trees.

In the meantime, it has reopened, some of the trees have been sawn down or niches cut into them so that you can get over them easily.

In the upper third, the path has been widened considerably by forestry work. Unfortunately, it is also muddy there.

The rest is, as always, wildly romantic and beautiful, it goes over tree trunks and rocks.

Great little valley that requires good footwear. Depending on the weather, it can be a real adventure. There are many fallen trees on the narrow, rocky path.
