Stepping Stones over the Monbach

Highlight • Bridge

When the water level is normal, it is not a problem to walk over the stones and cross the stream. Up to the upper part of the gorge there are several crossings that arouse enthusiasm, especially among children.

Sternried Cave

Highlight • Cave

Promisingly, it's advertised with a large sign. Sorry, but a cave doesn't look like much. Perhaps a fox could live in here. But it's not really an attraction. Access would have to be cleared first.

My first (re)planned round. I greatly shortened the regular hiking route, as it was actually only supposed to be a walk around. Very beautiful natural valley. I recommend an early start and sturdy shoes. 😁🥰
