The path into the Monbachtal valley leads through a wild, romantic gorge with moss-covered rocks, narrow wooden bridges and the babbling Monbach stream at the side. The varied path offers impressive moments of nature, especially when rays of sunlight break through the dense canopy of leaves. A real experience for hikers who want to enjoy untouched landscapes and quiet forest passages.

Monbachtal. Best to go during the week. It's packed on weekends.
