Urwaldpfad Trailhead

Highlight • Trail

Starting point for the jungle path. Here the forest has been left to its own devices for decades, it can grow here without human intervention.

Primeval Forest Trail in the Black Forest Core Zone

Highlight • Trail

Untouched by humans, the jungle trail is an impressive piece of the forest. Numerous moss-covered rocks and fallen trees. Simply beautiful.

Old Stone Wall in Naturpark Südschwarzwald

Highlight • Monument

Remains of an old stone wall can be seen at the beginning of the forest nature trail. Mysterious like many similar old walls, whether it is a border wall or the remains of a building? Definitely nice to look at!

Beautiful to walk, especially on warm, sunny days....

July 1, 2025,Urwaldpfad / Waldlehrpfad Schönau

A bit of elevation and plenty of shade are just what's needed in today's heat. That's why I chose the "Flüh" primeval forest trail or forest nature trail in Schönau. It leads along beautiful, narrow paths through a wild protected forest area with moss-covered rocks and tree trunks. Occasionally, there are also magnificent views, especially of the 1,414-meter-high Belchen.
Highly …

In some sections of the hike you can hear the noise of the distant B317 road. But you are compensated by the powerful and diverse "presence" of the forest in its "original" state.

Our first hike in the Black Forest Biosphere Reserve: from our vacation apartment in the Fröhnd district of Künaberg, we set off in mixed weather along the primeval forest trail towards Schönau in the Black Forest (the birthplace of Joachim Löw and home of the EWS energy activists). The forest impressed us with its great variety of mosses, lichens, ferns, …

At the car park in Schönau in the Black Forest, the forest nature trail/primeval forest trail takes you past the Joachim Löw Stadium. It goes up a gentle incline on the yellow diamond to Künaberg.
After a bend on the road in Künaberg, the upper forest nature trail with the yellow diamond continues on the primeval forest trail.

July 24, 2022,Wanderung: Urwaldpfad in Schönau

The path leads through the protective forest, which has been untouched for about 50 years, with adventurous rocks, gorges and moss-covered stones.
Many species of butterflies can be seen at the edge of the forest. e.g. B. the imperial mantle, which was voted butterfly of the year 2022, or the Russian bear, which I have never seen before.
The lower …

Beautiful tour in the jungle of Schönau. Our starting point was B. However, you can still park behind the REWE, Ri playground.
