November 2, 2025,Große Loffenauer Runde

A beautiful hike through brightly colored forests.

From Loffenau, the trail ascends, sometimes very steeply, along rocky paths to the Teufelsmühle (Devil's Mill), where a magnificent view awaits.

The trail then descends steeply past impressive rock formations on more excellent paths, some requiring sure footing. Through a lovely deciduous forest, you'll pass a small waterfall before returning to the spa …

This Black Forest Premium Trail started at the free 🅿️ at the spa park. The route goes straight up, out of the town. Passing the Laufbach Falls, we reached the old sports field, which has now been converted into a rest and barbecue area. At around 55oHM, we reached the Käppele, a tourist kiosk with a wonderful view. Crossing the …

What a wonderful hike, started in the morning in beautiful weather, it was a long and steep climb up the mountain through wild, romantic forests. When I arrived at the Teufelsmühle, I actually wanted to stop for a break until I noticed that it was closed today, so I continued downhill over the zigzag trail and across meadows until I …

Super beautiful and varied round, which is probably now also certified as a premium hiking trail; at least there are signs that indicate so. Lots of narrow paths, beautiful views, devil's holes and a place to stop at the Teufelsmühle on weekends.

I took today's tour from the Murgtal hiking guide:

Through the village we went to the Laufbach waterfalls and the old oil mill.
Along some beautiful vantage points and a barbecue area above the sports field, we came to the Käppele, a "kiosk" at the top of the …

Today I went to Loffenau, where I ran the big Loffenau loop. And what can I say, it was just great.😃
Even though the climb was pretty sweaty, the view more than made up for it.

May 20, 2024,Premiumweg "Große Loffenauer Runde"

There is something new - a premium trail that really has it all.

We start the "Great Loffenauer Round" from Loffenau and I can tell you - it only goes uphill once 😬

For about 13 kilometers, it goes up 700 meters to the Teufelsmühle. But don't worry, it's worth it. The path there is beautiful. We walk through dense …
