📝 The Kimmeling Gorge is the first of seven – and a real highlight. The narrow path leads along a small stream, flanked by rocks and mature trees. The rushing water, the play of light and shadow, and the natural narrowness make this section particularly intense.

💡 Tip: This is where the adventure begins – take your time to truly arrive.

A narrow, quiet path winds through lush greenery, with fragrant hawthorn branches hanging above it like a natural gateway into the depths of the Seven Gorges Trail.

📍 Tip: This section feels particularly enchanted early in the morning—ideal for starting the tour.

A winding gorge path, lined with tall grass and shaded by a canopy of leaves – this is where the quiet adventure of the Seven Gorges Trail begins.

📍 Tip: On warm days, this section is particularly pleasant – cool, quiet, and completely without cell reception.
