What a beautiful hike through the Seltenbach Gorge. Absolute jungle feeling.

At the end, @Christina 77 and I rewarded ourselves with a nice bike ride at the Klingenberg hiking lodge with its observation tower.

From here, you have a fantastic view of Trennfurt and the Main River.

The Seltenbach Gorge near Klingenberg (District Miltenberg) is one of the 100 most beautiful geotopes in Bavaria. The rock layers there tell of the history of the earth. The densely overgrown gorge is a habitat for all kinds of amphibians.

Very suitable for a hike with the family. Nice places to stop.
