Steckeschlääferklamm — Tree Spirits (Baumgeister) Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

You are never alone along the Hasselbach. Out of numerous trees, a curious forest ghost observes. There are over 60, including witches, goblins, elves and trolls, the creek leads past almost all of them. Who can find them all?

October 25, 2023, Wooden Bridge with Tree Face Sculpture, Steckeschlääferklamm

This is the first bridge in the Steckeschääferklamm. 66 hand-carved tree faces greet hikers in the Stäckeschlääferklamm. They are also located off the path. Steckeschlääfer are wood carvers who opened up the gorge to hikers in 1974 with several self-built wooden walkways.

Start or finish of the pretty little Steckeschlääferklamm. Or up to the Jägerhaus for a feast.
