Snowshoe tour to the Schwarzwasser

Snowshoe Hike to the Schwarzwasserhütte

Winter magic in the Schwarzwasser Valley through wild and romantic landscapes.

Every Monday from December 21, 2026, through March 29, 2027

The Schwarzwasser Valley, nestled between the Walmendinger Horn and the Hoher Ifen, is a wild and romantic nature reserve. Our snowshoe tour begins at the Auenhütte. From there, the trail leads along the Schwarzwasserbach stream. As we ascend and descend, we traverse beautiful, fairy-tale-like winter landscapes with frozen waterfalls and deep, snow-covered gorges. Even when it’s snowing, this tour is a delightful experience.
