Brühlbach Stream

Highlight • River

At night you can even go without a flashlight. The path is just enough that you do not stumble and you can orient yourself by mirroring the stars in the water where the stream is.

Stepped Path to Urach Waterfall

Highlight (Segment) • Waterfall

On nice days it gets so crowded that you have to queue, which is a bit too much for me personally.

August 24, 2023,Alb-Erkundung, Tag 4: 🥾🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Uracher Wasserfallsteig

Sodele... So that your feet don't forget how to walk, the next item on the program to "get to know the beautiful Alb" was a short hike to the next local tourist highlight: to the Urach waterfalls. The tour, which was actually intended as a circular route, was quickly rescheduled to the version "walk there - look & be amazed …

Today is a special day for my family so I took one day off and stayed with my children for the whole day.
Shame to be said, but in 8 years we never visited Bad Urach so we went there.
I have to thank @Dreamer0304 that showed Bad Urach in one of his last videos: I saw it and decided …

December 17, 2022,Nacht und Eisrunde zum Uracher Wasserfall 🥶

Started at -11 degrees but as long as you ran fast it actually worked. At the waterfall, people came in the dark from above only with cell phone light. They're completely down there. You can only shake your head at that. I wouldn't do it voluntarily without Grödel.

Finally we managed to get to the waterfalls of Bad Urach 🤗❣️
Due to the drought we didn't experience the water running down the steps, but it was still nice ‼️👌🏼👍🏼🤗
There were also a few people out and about, since there was also a town festival in Bad Urach. 😊

July 30, 2022,👩🚐👩🏼 Schwäbische Alb: Bad Urach ~ wunderschöne Tour am Bach entlang zum Wasserfall

With 1200 mg ibuprofen and my ankle donut in my hiking boots, I spontaneously went to the waterfall in Bad Urach this evening. A brilliant idea, as it turned out, because firstly we found a parking space (even free of charge because of the time) and secondly there were still a few people on the road. How crowded can it …

There are many steps leading up to the waterfall. It was really worth seeing what kind of shoes some people were wearing. Everything from flip-flops to golden ballerina shoes was there...

June 27, 2025,Uracher Wasserfall-Runde ab Wanderparkplatz P23

The path is well laid out along the stream. The waterfall itself is worth a visit, although I don't think there was as much water today, as it's supposed to be the largest in the state. There are several hiking trails there. Parking costs €5 per day, and the restrooms were free and clean. There's a restaurant there. We didn't …
