View of the Ibacher Schliff

Highlight (Segment) • Natural Monument

The Ibacher Schliff is an elongated rock formation that differs significantly from the surrounding landscape. From up here you have a wonderful view of the surrounding valleys.

Lierbachtal Valley

Highlight • Gorge

In Liebach are the ruins of the Allerheiligen monastery and the Allerheiligen waterfalls, which are well worth a visit.

Einbachtal

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

The Einbach valley was formed by a stream called Einbach. The district of Hausach down at the valley exit is also called Einbach and has a history of over 900 years. The Einachtal is a very idyllic Black Forest valley.

The least traveled ascent leads to the Brandenkopf via the Einachtal valley. This is probably due to the fact that the last one and a half kilometers are unpaved. The gravel route, the Hirzwasenweg is very wide, the gravel is highly compacted and of a finer nature, and is also signposted as a road to the Brandenkopf, so it is also easy to ride a racing bike. Be careful when going downhill, however, because the last few meters to the fountain are steep and it's better not to slip. Oh yes, and at the fountain you can fill your drinking bottles with delicious Black Forest spring water.

A gully is a steep gully that originates in the summit area and is only found in sandstone in this form. These gullies are feared in heavy rain. They carry a lot of water and debris. There are five such gullies in the Renchtal, one of which is the Bollenbacher gully (see the gully in the photos) - the gully through which the Bollenbach flows. There is also, of course, a rocky path, cairns, etc. that are located near the gully.

The Ibacher Schliff is a section of the Schwarzwaldsteig. Caution is advised here, especially in heavy rain - hiking through it is then difficult or not recommended. The path through the Schliff is only a foot wide and runs on sandy ground. Source: https://www.schwarzwald-tourismus.info/attraktionen/ibacher-schliff-am-schwarzwaldsteig-736b8ec6c7
