Hochwartfelsen Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

A detour to the Hochwartfelsen is definitely recommended. The view is fantastic!
The remains of a railing can still be seen, but the rock is currently completely unsecured. A head for heights is a prerequisite.

Zweribach Waterfalls

Highlight • Waterfall

The Zweribach waterfall is located in the middle of the breathtaking forest, the way there is a bit difficult, so nothing for Sunday shoes or sneakers. But it is worth the effort to take on.

February 28, 2025,Wanderung durch den Bannwald zum Zweribacher Wasserfall

Great hike. The snow made it a bit slippery in places, but it was still very easy to walk.

October 23, 2024,Zweribachwasserfälle und Hirschbachfälle ab St.Märgen

Highlights:

Zweribach waterfalls
Impressive natural spectacle.

Surrounded by protected forest, the Zweribach waterfalls are idyllically located in the middle of a nature reserve. The water thunders down two large ledges into the valley.

Hirschbach Falls
The little brother of the Zweribach waterfalls on this tour, so to speak, and certainly no less impressive.

June 14, 2025,Durch den mystischen Bannwald zum Zweribach-Wasserfall wandern

A strenuous but breathtaking hike. The highlight is definitely the Zweribach Falls. You can get very close and, with great care, even stand underneath them a little higher up. An incredible feeling that can't be put into words.

The starting point leads to the parking lot, but it belongs to the hotel. Luckily, we were able to park on the …

May 11, 2024,Alternative Zweribach Wasserfälle Runde ab St. Peter

The Zweribach waterfalls are always worth a hike. Today we took an alternative route from the St. Peter sports field, first uphill and then down to the waterfalls on great, partly well-known paths.

I personally like this tour almost better than my usual route here.

November 10, 2024,🌲 Schwarzwald 📍St. Märgen 🌫 Zweribacher Wasserfälle

We hiked along the panoramic trail with a view of the sea of fog in the Rhine plain in St. Märgen to the Zweribacher and Hirschbacher waterfalls. We were alone on the trails until midday and were able to really enjoy the time.

July 15, 2023,Zweribach Wasserfälle

With the heat, we are driven to the heights of the Black Forest. Beautiful tour of St. Märgen to the Zweribach waterfalls and back. Goes steeply down and up again but everything is easily doable.

May 6, 2023,Traumhafte Landschaft: Hirschbachwasserfall – Zweribach-Wasserfälle und Panorama

After lunch we spontaneously decided to go hiking again. The starting point of our tour was the lion in St. Märgen. However, we still had to make a detour to the bakery because we left the backpack with the food at home 🙈🤣 That has never happened to me either. The first stretch is relatively unspectacular on asphalt and wide …

August 5, 2023,St. Märgen Hirschbach- und Zweribachfälle

Very late to bed, very late up and very late I decided to do this little tour.
Since my multi-day alpine tour was canceled yesterday evening due to bad weather forecasts and snowfall, I finally use the Germany ticket today and take public transport to St. Märgen.
That was actually not on my plan and at home there would be …
