Wutachschlucht, Protected area in Black Forest, Germany
The Wutach Gorge extends for 30 kilometers through Baden-Württemberg, featuring steep rock walls that reach depths of 200 meters along the river path.
The area received natural reserve status in 1939, leading to the preservation of its geological formations and diverse ecological systems for future generations.
Multiple hiking trails connect seven municipalities surrounding the gorge, including Lenzkirch, Friedenweiler, and Löffingen, each contributing to local traditions and heritage.
The paths remain accessible between May and October, while winter conditions make certain trails impassable due to snow accumulation and slippery surfaces.
The Stallegg hydroelectric plant, operating from 1889 to 1979 near castle ruins, stands as evidence of early industrial development in this natural setting.
