One hiking circuit is titled “Wutach: Sonnenrain-Wutach Gorge-Ewattingen Circular Route”. The Ewattingen-Sonnenrain Trail-Wutach Gorge circuit is 10 kilometres long, takes approximately 3.5 hours, and leads towards Wutachmühle.
Between Stühlingen and Lenzkirch, the 118-kilometre Schluchtensteig trail passes through the Wutach Gorge. Hiking buses connect the gorge’s main access points; rail connections are coordinated with services at Döggingen station.
The Wutach Gorge has narrow, uneven paths and requires fitness, sure-footedness, and a head for heights. It is closed to hikers in winter. Cycling, mountain biking, and horse riding are prohibited there; the paths are not suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs.
Nature
In the Wutach Gorge, paths run along a clear river and past rock formations; at the same time, the area is home to a diverse range of plant and animal life.
