High Waterfall at Ristfeuchthorn

Highlight • Waterfall

From the Schneitzlreuth church, the hiking trail goes along the Weißbach ... wonderful to walk, despite the current construction site on the main road

Weißbach Gorge Trail

Highlight • Gorge

One of the lesser known and quieter gorges in the Berchtesgadener Land. I hiked the Weißbachschlucht at the end of March 2022. My impression was that it is very well …

The Weißbachschlucht is closed for the whole year 2019 because of marbled bridges and footbridges to be renewed.

A hike through this gorge leads over stairs and walkways past plunge pools through the roar of waterfalls, a tip: bring a rain jacket and definitely sturdy footwear!

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Very beautiful gorge, in summer ideal for cooling. Since it sometimes goes down very low, I would not recommend this tour for small children.

The Weißbach Gorge is truly beautiful. It's easy to walk when the weather is dry, and what's great is that there's no admission charge, unlike many gorges.
We found it spectacular and can recommend it.

Lazy tour, you could call our trip today something like that, but it was still fun again 😌. After the tour yesterday, relaxation was the order of the day, so there was swimming fun in Lake Thumsee again after the tour. Yesterday three SUP's were on the road, today probably around ten boards, so we're very trendy, yeah 😇. Tomorrow …

Leisurely hike from Schneizlreuth through the Weißberg Gorge

The only thing missing from the photos here is the rushing of the Weißbach. How good that we canceled the first tour.

Finally managed to go to the renovated Weißbach Gorge near Schneitzreuth, in the so-called Little German Corner.
Parking and entry to the gorge is free.


Would never go in alone.
That's why I'm surprised that parents with small children are clean.
But nothing surprises me anymore.


Partly very slippery.
Without my poles I would have had problems.
