프랑코니아 스위스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 폭포

The Arzloch is a popular hiking destination and often still considered a hidden gem. It's a protected natural monument, a wooded area known for its atmospheric, wild gorge with eroded sandstone layers. The waterfall itself is relatively small, with a height of about 3 to 4 meters. Access to the waterfall is natural. Hikers should wear sturdy footwear, as the path leads over roots, narrow trails, and uneven forest floor. The surrounding area is the real highlight. The damp local climate has carved a unique gorge into the Rhaetian sandstone layers, which is home to rare animal and plant species. The bizarre sandstone formations, which can resemble honeycombs due to weathering, are geologically interesting.

Tummler is the Franconian term for periodically flowing karst springs, which are generally referred to as hunger fountains. These are springs that dry up in the dry season and flow after particularly heavy rainfall or when the snow melts. The so-called “Tummler” are something special and are definitely worth a visit. The dry valley in summer, small Tummler, large Tummler.

The Arzloch is an atmospheric, wild gorge with eroded sandstone layers. Due to its humid local climate, it is home to rare animal and plant species, a waterfall and the "Markgrafentisch" rock formation. To get down from Eckersdorf, you have to climb a little and cross a narrow wooden bridge. A real experience.

It's beautiful how the clear water rushes over the mossy rocks. It's not one of the big waterfalls, but it's enchanting nonetheless.

In summer, an inconspicuous black hole in the rock face, but with a considerable depth of over 18 meters. During heavy rain and when the snow melts, considerable amounts of water can be spewed out here.

A wonderful place for great photos, to chill or to walk barefoot through the water.

Unfortunately it was dry when we visited, so it's best to visit after the snow has melted or there has been heavy rain.

After the snow melts in spring, karst water emerges from the rock hole, at times in a flood that covers the entire valley floor of the dry valley up to the Heroldsmühle. The stones in front of the rock hole were also washed out. Since the spring runs dry the rest of the year, it is popularly known as the Hunger Well. The emergence of large amounts of water from the tumbler was previously interpreted as an ominous omen. The large Tummler rises from a fissure in the Malm Beta, which is expanded into a spring cave by dissolving the lime. The small Tummler, another karst spring that only flows in spring, is located 200m up the valley. (Source: information board on site)
