“Hoher Steg” circular route

The reconstruction of the “Hohen Steges” means that an impressive natural monument can be visited.
The gorge at the entrance to the Turrach Valley was created by amounts of meltwater. This natural monument and the "Hohe Steg" are worth seeing and can be visited as part of a tour.
