ブルカルトロートの峡谷・トップ10

The Eisgraben exhibits impressive layers of the Middle Buntsandstein. It's a fascinating place for geology enthusiasts to experience Earth's history firsthand.

Very impressive deep gorge with a stream. Fitness required.

Please note that due to the Hammelburger Berg construction site you cannot continue on the hiking trail.

The icefall ditch near Aura.

Whether coming from below or from above: the paths along the cascading brook offer plenty of biking fun (of course, taking walkers and hikers into consideration). The route along the Kaskadenbach is also part of the "Hochrhöner" long-distance hiking trail.

Buntsandsteinschlucht "Dörflinger Ruh" Occurrence of large clods (blocks + slabs) of rock sandstone in the gorge is due to a tectonic subsidence within an approx. N-S directed graben.

If the Röthbach water runs an interesting place to stay

A lot of meltwater is currently running down the Röthbach through the wildly romantic Röthschlucht next to the B27 between Buchrasen and Bad Brückenau, past the memorial stone with the inscription "Josef Dörflinger Ruh 1933". Who was this Josef Dörflinger that the stone commemorates? Josef Dörflinger was born in Bad Brückenau in 1873 and was a master dyer by trade. Since the Obermang and the Untermang already existed, he was also referred to as "the Mittelmanger". From 1905 he was a city councilor and from 1925 until his death in 1939 he was deputy mayor. However, he was given the place of honor in the Röthschlucht six years before his death – as a surprise for his 60th birthday. Under a pretext, he was lured to the spot in order to surprise him with the unveiling of his own memorial stone. Even the town band hid behind trees and bushes to serenade the villagers, as local researcher Josef Liesicki reported in the early 1990s. The best way to reach the Josef-Dörflinger-Ruh on foot from Bad Brückenau is via Buchwaldstraße, past the Willy-Brandt-Haus of the Arbeiterwohlfahrt
