Anyone who knows the "Valley of the wild Endert" will love this section of the route in the Alfbachtal. The Alfbach flows wildly and romantically and a small, beautiful, narrow path leads along the stream.

Strohner Switzerland refers to the breakthrough valley of the approximately 52 km long Alfbach, and is called "Switzerland" because of the steep volcanic rock slopes.
It starts at the Strohn lava bomb, initially along a road with little traffic, but soon it goes down to the Alfbach, onto narrow paths where you still feel safe. The wild, romantic valley ends at Sprink.

A beautiful, narrow path, on which you feel completely safe, leads through the short stretch of Strohner Schweiz, along the wildly romantic Alfbach.
