Alter Rümmelesteg

Remains of the former bridge - was once constructed by the railway construction engineer Karl Rümmele.

Karl Rümmele was a railway construction engineer at the Baden State Railways. It was he who set the idea for a continuous walk through the Wutachschlucht with webs rolling. A special feature was the construction of the bridges as suspension bridges. They were anchored one-sidedly in the rock while resting on the other side on a stone pillar. If now the pillar would be destroyed by flood, the bridge still hangs freely at the rock.

A nice hike through the gorge with some ups and downs

A worthwhile hike through the Wutach Gorge which you should have done once. 😃

Bridge over the Wutach overlooking the historic Rümmele jetty.

Restored as a monument of German engineering!

Beautiful path with stunning panoramic views of the various valleys. Only possible without stroller. With children from 6 years I would say.

Already built in 1903/4 as a stable transition.

Like the entire route, it is wild and romantic with a long-standing bridge

Unfortunately, the old Rümmelesteg can only be seen from a distance.

Unfortunately, the jetty cannot be used
