フライブルク地区の峡谷・トップ20

Anyone who has ever taken the Höllentalbahn from Freiburg to Neustadt in the Black Forest will know the magnificent view of the gorge and the river that you have when you travel over the Ravenna Bridge. The 36-meter-high and 224-meter-long viaduct is the successor to the bridge built in 1887, which was blown up in the Second World War. In the run-up to Christmas, a Christmas market below the bridge invites you to enjoy mulled wine in the Black Forest setting. The best way to discover the Ravenna Viaduct is on a hike - for example, coming from Hinterzarten through the Löffeltal and back through the gorge.

The legend of the name of the noblewoman's grave can be found here: https://ortenau-urlaub.de/?p=269

The Edelfrauengrab waterfalls owe their name to a naturally formed scouring cave right next to one of the waterfalls, where, according to legend, an unfaithful noblewoman met her violent end. In fact, the Gottschlägel nature reserve with the waterfalls and, further up, the Karlsruher Grat is an outstanding scenic attraction in the northern Black Forest. From the hiking car park (signposted), it is only a few steps to the lowest level of the waterfalls, where the Edelfrauengrab is also located. Of course, it is worth climbing further up the adventurous paths and footbridges along the Gottschlägbach. If you want to go on an adventurous hike, climb further up at the upper end of the Gottschlägel to the Karlsruher Grat, where you can then do the via ferrata. From the Bosensteiner Eck at the upper end of the via ferrata, the path then leads over the 'Brennte Schrofen' back to Ottenhöfen. The entire route is about 12 km, elevation difference 500 m, walking time should be 4-5 hours.

Nice hiking trail along the falls over stairs and bridges. In the extension you reach the via ferrata Karlsruher Grat.

A great photo opportunity in the Ravenna Gorge, the journey is worth it!

From here you have a really great view and a nice opportunity to rest.

Definitely worth it, small waterfalls in a breathtaking landscape

A narrow path winds through the wild and romantic gorge. The crossing takes place via stairs, footbridges and bridges with constantly changing perspectives of the waterfalls.
