The Kanadiersteg, a beautiful covered wooden bridge, is on your right. Continue hiking towards Bachheim. The tour takes you over the Rümmelesteg bridge to the Wutach outlet. Marvel at how the water bubbles impressively out of the mountain here. The trail leads you along imposing rock galleries to the former spa town of Bad Boll.

The Lotenbachklamm is a side arm of the Wutach Gorge. For 1.5 km, the Lotenbach flows quite calmly between the rocks until it enters the wild gorge after a few hundred meters.
The entrance to the Lotenbachklamm gorge is opposite the hiking car park on the B315 between Gündelwangen and Bonndorf. Hike up the narrow path to the Schattenmühle hiking car park. Here you can stop for a bite to eat before returning to the hiking car park via the same route.
