Demanding circular tour from Trübenbach to Bärenlacke and back again via the impressive Vordere Tormäuer gorge!
From Trübenbach, the route leads uphill through an enchanted and secluded forest to Bärenlacke. The route then follows forest roads to the Eibenboden nature park entrance. The Vordere Tormäuer trail starts here from the Eibenmühle mill. The trail leads along the turquoise, crystal-clear Erlauf, past the Hundbach and Treffling Falls back to the starting point. A wonderful circular hike with unique nature experiences!
