Wooden footbridge in the Schlierbach-Kohlrain nature reserve

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

This part of the valley is highly recommended, it is very worth seeing and cannot really be captured in pictures.

This circular route is perfect for an afternoon stroll. I recommend sturdy footwear. There are some more challenging sections, but it's also suitable for children. The Siegelsbach Mill is a great place to stop for coffee and cake or a meal. Make sure to reserve in advance.

The Siegelsbacher Mill is a very beautiful spot, we had to stop there again for a break (we had planned something else after the hike today).

At the end of the Easter weekend we made a detour to Bad Rappenau. Beautiful tour with a visit to Guttenberg Castle. The Fünfmühlental is heavily frequented when the weather is good.

Took advantage of the sunny early spring day. - The tree trunk as a bridge on the Mühlbach path was not passable for all companions.
