Tannegger Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Tannegger Wasserfall is probably the most famous cascade of the Wutachschlucht. Over 15 meters deep, the water falls over mossy limestone walls that are bizarrely shaped and still growing.

Walk along bizarre rock formations on this beautiful stretch, listen to the raging Wutach and enjoy the unique scenery. The gorge is especially beautiful in autumn when the leaves of the trees turn white.

Wutach sinkhole in the Wutach Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The highlight of a beautiful hike through the Wutachschlucht. These walls are impressive and invite you to linger. A perfect place to rest, play and eat. Highly recommended!

Wutach bridge

Highlight • Bridge

A somewhat newer bridge – much more stable than the other wooden footbridges that you cross during the tour.

Cliff Path along the Wutach Gorge

Highlight • Trail

Very beautiful and idyllic path. But always keep your eyes open where you are going! It is not entirely safe. Sturdy shoes with a good tread are important here!

Wutach resurgence

Highlight • Natural Monument

Here, the water that seeps away a few hundred meters upstream at the old Rümmelesteg resurfaces in several places.

Wutach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

We hiked in the Wutachschlucht from the Wutachmühle to the Schattenmühle (around 13 kilometers). Good footwear and sure-footedness are recommended. Some passages are quite narrow, rocky and slippery. Walking sticks …

October 12, 2024,Bachheim - Wutachrandweg - Kapelle Bad Boll - Wutachschlucht ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I did this tour two years ago as part of my Schluchtensteig rounds, today I want to hike it in the opposite direction.
komoot.de/tour/777092274?ref=aso
The start is below the Dreischluchtenhalle Bachheim. The first 4km run along various forest paths, the forest is varied and I walk at the fog line, so that together with the colorful leaves a magical autumn …

May 21, 2022,Runde 5: Bachheim - Schluchtensteig- Kapelle Bad Boll - Wutachrandweg ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Today we started again in Bachheim, but then took the Schluchtensteig upstream along the Wutach. It was pure enjoyment up to the Bad Boll chapel: a wonderful path, sometimes down by the Wutach, sometimes up, flanked by mighty limestone walls, then with a view of the steep walls opposite, and also past the pretty Tannegger waterfall: this is gorge at …

May 11, 2025,Wutachschlucht, Bachheim bis Kapelle Bad Boll

A beautiful tour along the Wutach River. I almost like it better than the Three Gorges Tour. The return route, along the steep slope, is mostly a narrow path with great views and magnificent scenery. The trail is obviously very little used and also very poorly signposted. A GPS device is definitely a plus here.

April 10, 2022,Wutachschlucht I

Probably the most famous gorge in the southern Black Forest. Unfortunately completely overcrowded at the weekend. If that is too much for you, you can tackle the Ravenna Gorge in the direction of Freiburg; shorter and less frequented; but no longer a secret...
