グータッハ・イム・ブライスガウの滝・トップ7

The Elz Waterfalls are located in the Central Black Forest, southwest of Schonach. The Elz Waterfalls run directly along the U(h)rwaldpfad gourmet trail, which invites you to take a beautiful hike through the High Black Forest.

The upper Elz Falls can be seen when crossing the bridge on the way to the Farnbauernhof

Very nice path through the gorge with beautiful watercourses and moss-covered landscape

Here the Mühlbach branches off from the Elz. A nice place by the water with fish ladders.

The "description" mentions the Brettenbach, which has nothing to do with this highlight. It goes in a completely different place. Here the Mühlbach branches off from the Elz. The Mühlbach crosses the whole of Emmendingen and crosses the Brettenbach in the Vollratschen Park. There are several hydroelectric power stations on the Mühlbach. It in turn flows into the Elz shortly before Riegel.

A wild and romantic gorge, the rocky paths need a little sure-footedness

The Haslachsimonswälder brook flows through the narrow gorge. The stream that falls over some small waterfalls and cascades into the valley is definitely worth a visit. The path is bumpy, however, and the lower part is also very wet, which can lead to problems in the cold.

Impressive falls, especially after a lot of rain, of course. When it is wet, however, be careful when stepping on roots or stones: Danger of slipping!
