Klumpertal Stream

Highlight • River

The Klumperquelle is the main source of the Weihersbach and the fill is so enormous that three mills were once able to operate here immediately after the source emerged.

Very nice flow trails, not very technical. Püttlach and Klumper are beautiful valleys with large rocks and clear water.

So I quickly picked out a tour from @walltho and changed it a bit. I was surprised that he hadn't included the Schwedensteig, OK, so I included it in my plans. …
