Schlichem Nature Trail

Highlight • Trail

A quiet nature trail leads directly along the stream—at times narrow and enchanting, at times open and sunny. The rippling of the Schlichem River accompanies every step, making this section particularly idyllic.

Bridge Over the Schlichem Gorge

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge is only interesting because it was recently barricaded with stones by the owner of the private property opposite. There was no getting through. Now it works again, but …

First of all all the best for the new year and above all good health. 🍀
First round in 2023.
Hiked the paradise tour through the Schlichenklamm with my wife today. It's a very nice round.

September 6, 2025,Mündungsblick in Epfendorf – Schlichemwanderweg Runde von Epfendorf

A pleasant tour, approximately 11.7 km in length and with a gentle 180 meters of elevation gain. It runs mostly on well-maintained paths and offers beautiful views of the landscape around the Schlichem valley. The tranquil atmosphere is particularly appealing, ideal for simply switching off and hiking in a relaxed manner. However, there are no spectacular highlights or far-reaching views, …

March 12, 2026,VS🍀🥾Paradiestour-Naturschutzgebiet Schlichemtal – Schlichemklamm Runde von Epfendorf

Our first excursion of our long weekend took us to Epfendorf in the Black Forest-Baar-Heuberg region, on the lower reaches of the Schlichem River, which flows for 34 km from the Swabian Alb before emptying into the still-young Neckar River.

The Schlichemklamm nature reserve, nestled deep within a narrow gorge, was an absolute highlight.

That was a really nice hike, I can recommend it to anyone, and you can do the tour in both summer and winter. 🥾 The weather should be good and ideally not too hot. 🥵

October 10, 2021,Ruine Irslingen und Schlichemklamm

Curvy and narrow streets led me to Epfendorf today. I have chosen a small and varied tour and once again I am very enthusiastic. On narrow root paths along the Schischem, a short detour to the Irslingen ruins, and then dive into the Schischem Gorge. Splendid!
The second half of the hike takes me back over field, meadow and forest …
