Wolfsteiner Ohe Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

At this point a small waterfall has formed in the Wolfsteiner Ohe. It's very nice how the ice-cold water flows over the rocks.

Water Channel Trail in Bavarian Forest Nature Park

Highlight • Trail

Walking on the wall is dangerous and prohibited. My dog fell in and the current swept him right away. Luckily I got hold of him at the bridge 😱

Buchberger Leite Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The Buchberger Leite is one of Bavaria's most impressive gorges. You hike past steep cliffs, wild streams and admire pristine forests. Sturdy shoes are a must for this trail.
