Rötenbach ant trail

If you have the time and desire, you can go on a treasure hunt with Amina the ant while geocaching. At the end of the journey of discovery through nature, you will discover a treasure!

You start your tour at the Hardt hiking parking lot and walk in the direction of Rötenbachschlucht. From the hiking parking lot, walk approx. 500 m to the start of the 3.6 km circular trail.

You walk along the Rötenbach stream through the wild and romantic gorge with its many small waterfalls. Amina leads you from station to station over numerous small bridges and explains exciting things about ants. Continue in the direction of the Krebsgraben and, after crossing it, you will reach the Rötenbacher Wiesen nature reserve. Especially in May and June, you can encounter a variety of rare plants and animals here. Along the way, you can put your knowledge to the test with a butterfly memory game.

After the nature reserve, continue towards Rötenbach and the starting point of the tour.

We recommend sturdy shoes. The path is not suitable for baby carriages.

Many narrow paths and a few bridges await you on this tour. Surefootedness is required.
