ラウタートの滝・トップ5

Beautiful place... but not without its dangers right now because of the fallen leaves... watch out!

It is very beautiful here

After the Wunschwasser waterfall, the route unfortunately does not continue above St. Goar at the moment. The hiking trail to Biebernheim is closed. You have to take the path directly to Rheinfels Castle.

To get to the "entrance" of Kühlen Grund, you first walk 900 m from the B42 / Forstbachstraße intersection on the sidewalk next to Forstbachstraße and then another 350 m without a sidewalk on Forstbachstraße towards Loreley. There is a little more space next to the road on the right-hand side heading out of town - but not much. At weekends or on public holidays, as well as during the season when many tourists drive up to Loreley, you should not necessarily walk there. At the "exit" you come to the K88, which goes up to Patersberg in a serpentine fashion. It is better to walk 50 m down the K88 to the L338, then about 70 m up towards Loreley on the road. There is a path that leads up to the St. Goarshausen - Heide district. From here you have the option of walking back down to St. Goarshausen via Katz Castle, via the "Elchweg", or via the Loreley plateau. In my opinion, this is the only sensible alternative for incorporating the Kühlen Grund into a tour. Sturdy shoes with a good grip are advisable for this section. There are a few wet, rocky areas.

Little waterfall. Very quiet location. If the weather is good, you can take a short break here and cool your feet in the water.

Always nice here!

Very nice little waterfall

Here, where the "Wild Woman" lived according to old legends, you will find a cave with rugged rock formations made of slate. A lovely place for a little rest.
