Guardian of the Wutach Cliffs

Highlight • Monument

On the hiking trail in the Wutachflühen you surprisingly come across an almost 1 m tall animal figure carved in stone. A mythical creature with hooves, bumps on its back and originally a small horn on its forehead. Or is it a lion? It is said to have been created by a sculptor from Spain or Italy who lived as a guest worker in Blumberg and fell in love with a girl from Fützen, who often roamed the Flühen. But the girl wasn't interested in him. He then created the animal sculpture and said to the girl: "Whenever you go through the refuges, you will think of me". Today it is regarded as the "guardian of the Wutach rivers".

Wutachflühen Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

The Wutachflühen (Flühen = rocks) stand for towering rock towers, gigantic ferns, moss-covered stones and gnarled roots. You pass this section of the jungle on partly exposed, narrow paths with a low risk of vertigo.

Hohle Gasse (Narrow Rocky Pathway)

Highlight • Gorge

Attention will be required here ... if you look closely you will find the stone and can puzzle what kind of figure it is ...

Sturzdobel Falls

Highlight • Waterfall

Especially on hot days, this waterfall invites you to refresh and linger. We spent a great rest here in complete silence.

Sauschwänzlebahn Bridge over the Wutach River

Highlight • Bridge

On the first stage of the Schluchtensteig one of the highlights: the bridge of the Sauschwänzlebahn as a truss girder bent downwards. There are a few more of these, but they are not visible on the Schluchtensteig, unless there is good visibility, for example from Buchberg.
