Gaishölle

Highlight • Waterfall

A narrow path winds through the wild and romantic gorge. The crossing takes place via stairs, footbridges and bridges with constantly changing perspectives of the waterfalls.

The water of the Brandbach stream plunges down here through a narrow gorge called Gaishölle. Over the centuries, the great drop in the water has washed away the huge rocks …

Gaishöll Waterfall Bridges

Highlight • Waterfall

It goes steeply up over 13 bridges. A certain level of fitness is required.
Not a flip-flop path.

Nice rest area and fork: on the right we continue up the waterfalls and on the left past the hut we go to the "small" schnapps fountain path

November 2, 2024,🌲Sasbachwalden-Neuwindeck-Felsenpfad-Gaishölle
Better weather was forecast for the Black Forest than here at home, so we took the tour that we had stolen from @🥾 Noreen 📸 (thanks for that 😉). However, we changed direction so that we could initially enjoy the colorful vineyards in the sunshine. Later on, it clouded over here too, but we were out in the forest anyway... …

Yesterday we went to Sasbachwalden in the best hiking weather ☀️. For this we put together a great tour with lots of trail sections.
We started in the Gaishölle before we went over the Felsenpfad and Laufbachpfad to Neu-Windeck Castle with its great view.
This circular hiking trail has everything to offer and leaves nothing to be desired. 🏰 🪨 …

Over the Gaishölle and Felsenpfad, on the Laufbachpfad to the Neuwindeck castle ruins - today we had a really fantastic tour in the Ortenau 😍

After the annoying night shift, I was fed up and really wanted to rest and recharge my batteries 😊. Since it was already really warm again, I dug out a tour with 2 little streams.😅 I got my inspiration from @Iris & Frank🤝
We started at a large parking lot in Lauf. The path along the gurgling Laufbach was magical. …

We had seen the tour at @🥾 Noreen 📸 and added it to the "endless list" of planned tours. Today we set off for Sasbachwalden to enjoy the autumn colours. Although the first 4.6 km were on asphalt, strangely enough, that didn't bother us. We just enjoyed the beautiful views in the sunshine. A little way after the Neuwindeck ruins, …

Gaishölle-Hohritt-Felsenpfad-Laufbachpfad- and back via Neu Windeck Castle through the orchards and vineyards.

The weather looked anything but good. But a little hiking before heading off on the GR221 via Mallorca at the weekend can't hurt. So we went to the northern Black Forest again.

The car park at the Gaishöll waterfalls is a perfect starting point. It's right along these that we go steadily uphill. The cloudy atmosphere goes perfectly with the …

I was lucky with my tour today. 😍 Started early and it was still pleasantly cool, especially in the Gaishölle. Almost the entire tour was in the shade, only the last two kilometers were sunny. This was just the thing for a hot 🔥 day.
