    The Teufelskirche is a gorge in the Rhät Sandstone and an adventure playground in a mystical world. The path through the gorge leads in some places over wooden bridges or stone blocks to make any progress. Sometimes you sink to the ankles in the mud, waterproof footwear is advisable and good sure-footedness is necessary. At the end of the gorge, a small waterfall flows down the layers of sandstone. At the waterfall, stairs lead into the gorge and an information board has been installed. At the foot of the rock formations at the waterfall, some tunnels up to 70 meters long testify to attempts to mine lignite and silver.

      The waterfall now consists of a small trickle in summer, at most to wash your hands.

        A great gorge that should only be entered with suitable footwear.
