Seltenbach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Beautiful path, partly also over small wooden bridges, through the gorge at the foot of the Klingenburg. A bit slippery in places when it rains (showers).

December 16, 2023,Weihnachtswanderweg und Seltenbachschlucht - Runde von Klingenberg am Main

At the beginning, the hiking club created a great Christmas hiking trail with lots of little discoveries. Great for children. We then turned to the hiking center. Which is also the stopover tip of the day. In the evening you can also go to Alexander's Clingenburg with delicious food and a great view of the Main Valley.

The beginning of the path is closed off for a game reserve and is therefore not accessible. Unfortunately, you have to take the road instead. Otherwise, it is a varied path over narrow paths and a great gorge, as well as a beautiful view of the Main.
