The Katzenbachtal is also very nice for an extensive hike.

Nice shady path along thestockinglbach.

A beautiful valley with beautiful paths.

Location and history: The Tiefklinge is located about 600 m -700 m west of Lichtenwald-Hegenlohe, at the intersection of the Seeteichweg and the Tiefklingenweg. the deep blade, like every blade, has a small notched valley caused by water and debris erosion and usually side valleys of larger valleys. They form short, narrow, but steep valleys without a valley floor. The further deepening through erosion and receding erosion is mainly caused by the water from rivulets and streams and their gradient and can still be observed today. Erosion, sedimentation and transport are mutually dependent. The name "Klinge" for small notched valleys is said to come from the noise of the streams during high water. Another interpretation says that the valleys were struck as if by blades. In the whole of south-west Germany, including the Swabian and Franconian Jura, small notched valleys are known as the Klinge, Tobel and Klammen. As the name suggests, the deep blade is a deeper blade. The Deep Blade is also the habitat of the midwife toad. Source: partly Wikipedia

Location and history: The Katzenbachtal is located between the towns of Hohengehren and Lichtenwald in the conservation area of middle Schurwald. But it is not as you might think, that the Katzenbach also flows there. No, the upper part of the Reichenbach flows there in the Katzenbachtal. The Katzenbach valley begins where the Riedwiesenbach flows into the Reichenbach and ends where the Eitisbach also flows into the Reichenbach. The Katzenbachtal is an idyllic valley along the upper Reichenbach and has a length of about 1.87 km In the vernacular, this upper part of the Reichenbach is still called Katzenbach today. Unfortunately, it is not known why he is called Katzenbach.

When you are alone in the forest, the splashing of the water is wonderfully calming and relaxing. A very nice route through the forest, I can only recommend it!

Location and history: The Rappenloch area is located in the district of Aichschieß in the municipality of Aichwald in the Esslingen district. The Rappenloch area is north of Krummhardt. The Rappenloch area is a conservation area and is part of the Aichwald conservation area. The main protection purpose is the preservation of the diversity and beauty of a typical Keuper mountain landscape of the Neckar area, which is characterized by cliff-rich sandstone slopes with natural beech and oak forests. The Rappenloch area with its importance as a habitat for numerous, sometimes rare plant and animal species characterize the value of this landscape. The "Aichwald" landscape protection area and thus also the Rappenloch area came into effect on July 30, 1980. The name derivation is unclear. Possibly the name goes back to ravens or the bald ibis, a species of ibis that became extinct in the late Middle Ages and had its last colonies in narrow ravines. Source: partly LUBW and Wikipedia
