Wolfsschlucht Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

Wonderfully rustic gorge in which you have to find your way. A real insider tip and very different in character than the much better known Monbachtal, which is nearby.

April 11, 2026,Ottenbronn - Fuchsklinge - Wolfschlucht

Park at Ottenbronn cemetery, then across to the Thälesbach, Fuchsklinge, above Hirsau to Ernstmühl and up the Wolfschlucht to the parking lot - a small, always beautiful loop. In the Wolfschlucht, you should be sure-footed - there is also the possibility to go up in the stream bed, which however involves some climbing, today we took the hiking trail.

Despite the weather, we went out a bit... Late to bed, late to get up, and we didn't want to drive far in this unpredictable weather. I had saved the tour; the pictures looked beautiful. We know the Wolfsschlucht gorge well; it's always fun. The walk along the Tälesbach stream through the Fuchsklinge was new and a really pretty path. …

In the small district of Ernstmühl, the trail climbs steeply for a short time and through the beautiful, wild and romantic Wolfstal valley. The path is somewhat arduous due to roots, scree, and small …
