Great opportunity to cross the Leraubach without getting your feet wet. Be careful when the granite stones are wet or damp.

View of the Wolfslohklamm

Highlight • Viewpoint

Here in the Wolfslohklamm the rounded granite blocks can be found in heaps. However, the name Klamm is misleading, it is more of a notch valley. From above you have a good view of the Leraubach.
