    Hiking

    The watercourse that flows alongside this path is not a natural stream, but rather part of a former irrigation ditch system.

    Hiking

    Shortly before Egloffstein, the path in Trubachtal runs along an irrigation ditch. The path still rewards with a great view in and over the valley.

    Hiking

    An irrigation ditch is preserved here, as it has been used for centuries to supply fields and meadows above the Trubach and to increase the yield. A board explains the function.

    On another board, hikers are kindly invited to help keep the ditch free.

    Children will have fun letting a fallen apple or leaf drift and clearing the way to the Trubach for them. Will a new apple tree grow somewhere on the North Sea? ☺
