A beautiful path from Gera-Untermhaus to Ernsee.

Nice path off the road.

The Zaufensgraben rises about 1,000 m southwest of the Gera-Leumnitz airfield. The stream flows through Gera in a predominantly southwesterly direction. In the middle section it forms a narrow V-shaped valley in which the Zaufensgraben nature reserve is located, which is the smallest in Gera with an area of 11 hectares. It passes the Ronneburger Höhe with the Ferberturm observation tower there. In the lower section the ditch is piped under Meuselwitzer Straße. Finally, the stream flows into the Gessenbach at about 195 m above sea level, which flows into the Weiße Elster a little further west.

Beautiful gorge at the edge of Untermhaus. Fire salamanders can be found in the Fuchsklamm.

A great way, especially the descent is incredibly fun.

Via a wooden staircase with approx. 200 steps you cross a steep Kerbtal called the Fuchsklamm. In the early days of hiking tourism at the beginning of the last century, the valley spanned the so-called Hermannsbrücke. The Hermannsbrücke connected Gera with the summer resort of Ernsee and was a huge wooden structure, which was exposed to wind and weather and, due to lack of appropriate maintenance (wartime 1st World War ...), did not have a long lifespan.
