Rennbachtal Valley

Highlight • Gorge

In the narrow Rennbachtal you are usually alone and can enjoy the peace and quiet. The stony slopes are overgrown with dense moss and the small stream babbles peacefully.

A beautiful trail that leads from the Rennbach Valley up to the plateau near the Soldatenbrunnen fountain. You'll usually be alone here.

Elaborately designed weather shelter with a view of the Phillipsburg nuclear power plant (closed in 2019) and the Palatinate mountains. Nice resting place to have a snack, seating is available.

Eyach Water Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful root path along the wild Eyach. Comfortable to walk on hot days. You can always find places where you can get to the water and cool your feet. The most beautiful path in the Eyachtal!

Eyach River Rapids

Highlight • River

In some places, the Eyach River slopes slightly, and the water flows a bit more rapidly. This creates small waterfalls with miniature "rapids."
No more, no less.

Himmelsleiter (Heaven’s Ladder) — Stairway, Bad Wildbad

Highlight • Structure

The ladder to heaven is a pedestrian staircase that connects the Hohenlohestraße in the valley with the Paulinenhöhe below the Wildbader Kopf via 365 steps.
Here the ascent to the weathervane hut follows immediately.

February 1, 2026,Rennbachtal – Eyach-Wasserweg Runde von Bad Wildbad Bahnhof

A very beautiful tour. I felt like I was in the wilderness.

Walking along the Eyach River is truly an experience, despite the occasional patch of ice.

The final climb was quite challenging. Once you reach the highest point, the last 3 kilometers, which also include a nice, narrow descent, can be easily walked.

Today again the round that we already did similarly in February. komoot.de/tour/661655378
Changed direction and also to Bad Wildbad purely because of a visit to the Christmas market. If you put it that way, the last 2 km are extremely strenuous, although going downhill. There really isn't a way.

We had already done the tour once in December 2020. Not shared publicly at the time. In our opinion, the most beautiful round trip in the northern Black Forest. Always beautiful and can only be recommended.
