Ravenna Gorge

The Black Forest Highlands home trail leads past many old saws, mills and a rope factory, taking hikers through the Ravenna Gorge. When hiking through the Ravenna Gorge you should be sure to wear sturdy shoes. On hot summer days, the green fir trees provide shade. Be careful when it rains, as the wooden walkways and steps can become slippery.

In the lower area, the gorge is crossed by the 37-metre-high Ravennabrücke, the viaduct of the Höllentalbahn. There, you can also find the St. Oswald Chapel (built in 1148) and the Sternen estate, where Marie Antoinette stayed in 1770 and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in 1779.
