The little detour to the Kastenklinge is worth it, even if it can be very muddy after rainy days, so you have to take a detour through the stream.

It doesn't get any better than HAm described - the entire 2 km long section is pure adventure, but please be careful - it's not entirely safe either, as it's partly steep on greasy ground and - even worse - steep goes down.

Small waterfall artificially created by tree trunks on a tributary to the Teufelsklingenbach, just before the mouth of it.

There is no longer a bridge here. On hot days you can enjoy cooling off here. The path down is not easy to walk. You definitely have to be sure-footed and wear good shoes.

Seven Bridges Way: Hidden path, not easy to walk on, especially after rain, which is no longer maintained and is probably only maintained as a beaten path by individual hikers. Partly very muddy; the bridges, with the exception of one footbridge, are virtually non-existent or unusable. You have to shimmy down and back up the steep slopes at the ditches yourself. In some places the path can hardly be seen anymore, parts have slipped away. Absolutely sure-footedness required, if you like it a bit adventurous, you will like it 😁 Hiking sticks are helpful. If you can enjoy that, you can expect a wonderful expedition through a small jungle, at the end with crossing a ford, in which at least the shoes can be cleaned a bit again 😃😉
