A wonderful spot, unfortunately gravel has been added to the lower section and therefore only conditionally recommended with a trekking rag.

The Tiefenbachtal, located between Wildbad and Steinach/Ens, is a wild, romantic, natural stream valley. Here you will find peace and unspoilt nature. A short hike through this valley is not to be missed.

The path through the Saubachtal is a wild, romantic little path through a beautiful deciduous forest. A small stream flows comfortably and shadily along the path. Especially when it's hot, you feel very comfortable here
