Rear Hörschbach Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Very popular with children, but also for those who want to take beautiful pictures. Damming water and then when you open it again, a lot of water comes on the waterfall.

The water doesn't fall spectacularly into the depths here, but rather glides in gentle cascades over moss-covered stones, forming a harmonious, almost fairytale-like scenery. Especially after rain, the waterfall shows …

Path to the Hörschbach Waterfalls

Highlight • Trail

Here you can walk down to the back waterfall (Hörschbach). It is not far from here. You can hear voices from the children playing at the waterfall.

Hörschbach Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

In winter, when there is ice, you should have appropriate equipment and a minimum level of fitness and surefootedness, otherwise it can quickly become dangerous.

Upper Brook Path

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A shortcut to the upper Bachweg which is easier to walk than the path through the blade.

We had a party on Saturday and on the way back we crossed the Hörbach Gorge off the to-do list.

After a long time back in the beautiful Hörschbach Gorge. Unfortunately, the path along the stream is only accessible for a short distance. Was a great way.
But the way over the upper Bachweg is also beautiful.
Children are rewarded with a dam on the creek at the turning point. Dam up water and then feed the waterfall with it …

A really great round.
The waterfalls in the Hörschbachschlucht are simply beautiful. And today, in the best hiking weather, it was deserted. Fantastic.

Unfortunately, the Hörschbach waterfalls have lost a lot of their attractiveness because the path along the stream between the upper and lower waterfalls has been closed. That's why I didn't start recording until later. Paths around mostly boringly wide, gravel and zero view of the Bach valley.

Today I was looking for icicles and found what I was looking for at the Hörschbach waterfall before the thaw sets in💯❄️😍 Was ideal to walk in frosty weather, when it thaws and rains again, the path is not accessible🤔
