In winter, when there is ice, you should have appropriate equipment and a minimum level of fitness and surefootedness, otherwise it can quickly become dangerous.

The so-called "Bachweg" (stream path) through the Hörschbach Gorge is currently (2021) closed!

Please check the Murrhardt city website for the current situation.

Highly frequented during holiday periods and when the weather is nice!

The Hörschbachschlucht has been a 46.4 hectare nature reserve since March 1995!
A hiking trail (path) of around 2 km leads through the sometimes narrow and unspoilt gorge, through the water or over small bridges, from the lower "front waterfall" (5 m drop) to the upper "rear waterfall" (12 m drop).

The "rear waterfall" was designated as a natural monument in 1965 with an area of 20 ha (50 m below and 50 m above)!
Natural monuments should not be larger than 5 hectares, which is why a nature reserve was applied for for the gorge that gives the area its name...
