Highlight • Natural Monument

The two rock gates can be seen from the hiking trails below. There is also a small Marian grotto below the rock. To get directly to the two rock gates, you have to climb the small, steep path.

July 13, 2025,Bärenthal: Höhlen, Felsentor und Kapelle

From the parking lot, the path leads briefly along the Bära River in the valley, then steeply uphill on a narrow path. First, you'll reach the rather large Bat Cave and then the Lengenfels through cave. The path leads through the cave and further uphill to the barely discernible remains of the ruins of Lengenfels Castle. It continues through the …

Today I used my vacation day for a hike near Bärenthal. I parked at the Bruckfelsenhöhle parking lot. From there, I walked a bit along the Bära River to the Lengenfels cave. It's a through cave. Very impressive. The trail continues through the forest and across meadows to the Paterfels. Great views of Bärenthal. Further on, towards the Felsentor (rock …

Today I did a test run to see how my foot inflammation from the Lechweg had gone.

This is a varied tour with a few caves and rocks. We started in the sun, but had to shorten the tour at midday because we got soaking wet.

We started in Bärenthal, the smallest community in the Tuttlingen district.
First we made the detour to the bridge rock cave. Now it was time for the actual hiking trail. The first section ran partly on the cycle path next to the Bära.
After a good 2 km it went up to the Lengenfels cave and passage cave.
The next …

We did today's hike together with Rolf and Irene.
The template came from Rudolf. ❤️Thank you for that 👍👍
Parking is right on the banks of the Bära and 100m away you are already at the Bruckfelsenhöhle.
Then it goes up on the opposite side. Above was made with a splitter wood. The two young people recognized us as Komootler …
