"... A rustic forest path leads from Grenzau Castle to the striking rocks at the Kaiserstuhl crossroads. Here we turn left to the rocky outcrop where a bench is available. Equipped with sturdy shoes, the path leads us down in serpentines to the Brexbachtal. ..." https://www.tourenplaner-rheinland-pfalz.de/de/tour/wandern/waeller-tour-brexbachschluchtweg- Grenzau/6080058/#dmdtab=oax-tab3 ⚠️ If the descent over the narrow path down to the Brexbachtal is too steep, you can also take a small detour via the Ostersmühle. 😉
