The Schönauklamm lies around one kilometer northwest of Schönaudorf.

In this beech-maple-ash forest it is cool, damp and a bit dusky - that is a welcome cooling off on hot summer days.
But a visit is also worthwhile in other ways: Fire salamanders can be observed - especially during and after rain - and the yellow-bellied toad likes to hang out in pools. Common bird species are great spotted woodpecker, greenling, cuckoo, great tit, blackcap, wood pigeon, robin and coal tit. On the other hand, the black woodpecker and tawny owl are rarer.
