Hiking
From the Allerheiligen monastery ruins, you hike through unspoilt mixed forests and on narrow rocky paths along the largest, natural waterfall in the northern Black Forest. The Lierbach eats its way through the granite here in Allerheiligen and falls a total of 66 meters down.
The 100 meter high walls of the gorge shine deep green from the moist, shiny moss. There are many legends about the monastery ruins and the unspoilt mountain forest of the gorge slope, some of which you can learn about along the way.
From the angel's pulpit above the falls there is an unobstructed view through the gorge.
Finally, a wider path leads back to the monastery courtyard over many steps. The last section of the upper gorge is also accessible with a pram. The national park team regularly offers guided hikes along the waterfalls.

Trail Reviews
I had actually planned an extensive hike at the Hornisgrinde and a visit to the mermaid. Unfortunately, after arriving, I decided to take this short walk nearby. The reason for this was a fairly "stiff breeze" and visibility of less than 50m. Maybe another time🤷🏻♂️
All Saints Waterfall is a very beautiful natural wonder with a lovely circular trail. Due to limited parking, you should arrive early on weekends. I started my circular trail at the All Saints Chapel and enjoyed the consistently beautiful view of the waterfall from the top. When I arrived at the main entrance, there were already lots of tourists milling around; I was so lucky to have arrived early. I then walked up the many steps and always had the waterfall in front of me. It's easy to walk because there are railings to hold on to. Once at the top, there are free, well-maintained restrooms and something to satisfy your hunger ☕🥮🍦🍪 and thirst 🧃🥤 This circular trail is highly recommended 👌🏼🫶🏼
After we had already driven so far, we thought we would look at the Allerheiligen waterfalls as a round and it was really worth it 🤩
Unfortunately, the subsequent tour 13 km down to Oppenau could not be recorded due to GPS problems 😐
The most beautiful and highest natural waterfalls in the Black Forest
The All Saints Waterfalls are not far from our hike along the romantic mill tour around Ottenhöfen and allow us to experience a fascinating view of a very special natural spectacle. https://www.black-forest-tourism.info/attractions/allerheiligen-wasserfaelle-b9918d8834 Above the waterfalls, the hiking trail leads us along the rather small Grindenbach to the former Premonstratensian monastery of Gothic architecture, founded 1191 - 1196, and allows us to fondly remember the northern Black Forest by visiting the ruins, a wonderful conclusion to our two day tours. https://www.schwarzwald-tourismus.info/ariats/klosterruine-allerheiligen-bd547c30ae
Circular hike to the Allerheiligen waterfall to the monastery and back.
Entertaining round at the All Saints Waterfalls Since we like to be out and about early in the morning, we enjoyed the quiet and being alone at the monastery and on the circular route. Above the monastery is a chapel that is open to visitors and is kept bright. Through the monastery complex we came to the circular path, which started as a forest path, soon turned into a rocky path and so everyone liked it. At the vantage points we caught a glimpse of the waterfalls. Then we descended on forest roads and trails to the waterfalls. The path to the waterfalls is well developed and easy to walk on with bridges and stairs. The falls themselves are impressive and definitely worth a visit.
