Moos Waterfall (Dietfurt Waterfall)

Highlight • Waterfall

On your way through the Wutachschlucht you will pass numerous waterfalls. The water cuts its way through rock crevices and splashing over shell limestone walls and mossy edges.

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!

Old Rümmele Footbridge

Highlight • Bridge

Karl Rümmele was a railway construction engineer at the Baden State Railways. It was he who set the idea for a continuous walk through the Wutachschlucht with webs rolling. A special feature was the construction of the bridges as suspension bridges. They were anchored one-sidedly in the rock while resting on the other side on a stone pillar. If now the pillar would be destroyed by flood, the bridge still hangs freely at the rock.

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.
