Hike through the Wutach Gorge to Bad Boll

There are many ways to explore the Wutach Gorge and its wild and romantic side valleys from Löffingen and its surrounding districts. This trail runs along the royal stage of the Schluchtensteig long-distance hiking trail. Walk upstream from Wutachmühle mill and marvel at the steep forest and rock walls in the narrow valley. In some places there is only a narrow ledge between the vertical rock face and the raging river. You leave the Kanadiersteg, a beautiful covered wooden bridge, on your right and continue towards Bachheim. The tour takes you over the Rümmelesteg footbridge to the outlet of the Wutach, where the water gushes impressively out of the mountain almost three kilometres downstream. Walk through impressive rock galleries to the former spa town of Bad Boll. From here, follow the signs to Boll until you reach your destination, the Boll hiking car park.

Sturdy footwear and rucksack provisions, surefootedness and a head for heights are essential.

The gorges are divided into different rescue sectors, all of which are signposted. In the event of an emergency, this will help the mountain rescue services to find you more quickly and easily. Please always pay attention to which sector you are in.

As mobile phone reception is not always good in the gorges, you may have to walk out of the gorge or further into the gorge to contact the mountain rescue service.

Please follow the recommended route! Latest route information at www.wutachschlucht.de

The Wutach Gorge is not suitable for pushchairs, but can be walked with children who are sure-footed and do not suffer from vertigo.

The trail is suitable for dogs. Due to the steps and narrow paths, please keep your dog on a lead and be aware of other walkers.

The paths are usually very wet and slippery, so be careful on the narrow paths.
