Category:Feldsee-Wasserfall, Waterfall in the Southern Black Forest, Baden-Württemberg, Germany

Feldsee waterfall emerges where Lake Feldsee drains and splits into several tiers as water descends the slope. The flow eventually merges with other streams that feed into the larger river network of the region.

The Feldseekar cirque owes its steep back wall to glacial scouring that lasted longest here and at the Zastler Loch. Erosion-resistant granite porphyry dykes running across the slope were carved out by the ice into rock walls, and the Seebach now forms its main falls steps over up to three nearly parallel dykes.

The falls lie in the Feldberg nature reserve, which protects the Feldseekar and its crags. The Feldsee-Wasserfall is fed by the Seebach, the upper course of the Wutach, which keeps that name until it reaches the Titisee. The two upper falls, about two metres high, sit near the crossing Felsenweg and are the better known of the group.

You reach the waterfall on foot or by bike from parking areas, as no direct road connects to it. Paths can be muddy or slippery depending on recent weather, so sturdy footwear helps you move safely.

The main Feldsee waterfall drops 62 metres in three main steps of up to 18 metres, formed where the Seebach crosses granite porphyry dykes in the back wall of the Feldseekar. A smaller northern parallel stream falls about 70 metres in total into a gorge over 30 metres deep, but carries only a quarter of the Seebach's flow. Both rank among the highest waterfalls of the German uplands yet are little known.
