작센 바이 안스바흐‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 협곡

beautiful path through the forest

Waating through the mud is a bit desolate. But at this time of the year you can really enjoy the flowers of the bushes.

Nice, short section of the trail that is easy to walk on.

Haaren is the surname of a German-Baltic noble family. The family belonging to the Uradel had been based in Kurland and Lithuania since the middle of the 17th century. Their ancestors are said to have come from the Osnabrück area, even if they cannot be clearly proven. The Baltic lineage begins with Christopher Otto Alexander von Haaren († 1745). The noble family was predominantly characterized by landowners and civil servants.

The path at the Helmbrechtsgraben is adventurous and natural. You have to be careful that you get the exit in time, otherwise you'll end up in the undergrowth

The path along the gorge is very narrow, you have to go one behind the other as there is no space for two men next to each other. You should also have a certain surefootedness, as the path has slipped a bit in one area and is therefore steep.

Where the Devil's Trench got its name from remains unknown. From Dr. Eichhorn, once pastor at St. Johannis in Ansbach, reports that one day he was called to the deathbed of a man who wanted to make confession before him. The dying man confessed that he wanted to attack him, the pastor, once when he was on his way from Ansbach to Dautenhaben. But when he was about to pounce on him, he was shocked to see a figure suddenly standing next to Eichhorn and accompanying him through the gorge. Neither before entering the trench was the figure to be seen, nor afterwards, when the pastor had left the ravine again. It must have been an angel of God who guarded the pastor in these critical moments.

Nice trail on the edge of the gorge
