Super quiet. Hardly any hikers come here. A beautiful forest. The river is small and quiet.

The gorge can be easily accessed with these two bridges. If you have space, you should stay here for a moment and let nature work its magic on you.

Upper Ravenna Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

Up here, the Ravenna gorge still shows its tame side. The trail leads through the sparse spruce forest and below the trail you can admire the Ravenna in its streambed.

August 16, 2025,Ravennaschlucht – Ravennabrücke Runde von Stoffelhäusle
About halfway up the mountain, there are many fallen trees, which completely block the path for about 300 meters. You can climb over there, but it's risky and very difficult.

The right day for a walk in the Ravenna gorge: storm and rain over, lots of water in the Ravenna and snow on the paths, so that the tourists with shoes on shoes stay in the glass blowing workshop...
Start at the Hofgut Sternen hiking car park and up the pretty little alpine trail. As the sun comes out, a …

Again a very nice hike to get on and off. Unfortunately still with problems with the small Garmin GPS, the total distance of the tour was about 8km. The Ravennaschlucht can be easily combined with the Höllsteig, on which you are almost alone. I didn't do the last bit towards Piquet Felsen due to lack of time. Attention, be sure …

Out of sheer enthusiasm I didn't check the elevation profile yesterday...otherwise I wouldn't have expected Heidi to do this lap. Maybe that's a good thing, it was wonderful and she bravely mastered the seemingly alpine ascent 💪, beautiful area!

Unfortunately, komoot mixed up the order of the pictures a bit.
And at the end of the hike we noticed the error of the wrong slope path too late, so we had to take a "jungle tour" to get back on the right path at the old Höllsteig train station.
Nevertheless, it was nice and at the end point we …

"You have to walk back the same way" or "there is no other way"☝️was heard from those we asked if there was another way back. But there is. We found him😝

First it went up over bridges and stairs and later it was adventurous over narrow paths along slopes down again.
There was a wonderful view from the top.

Thanks to derolli for the tip.
The route should, however, be returned through the gorge at the latest from the bank with a view of the Feldberg, as originally planned. The way down through the scree field is very daring and demanding. S3
