The approximately 1.5 km long nature adventure trail to the Finterbach waterfalls begins in Sattendorf. Sturdy footwear is recommended.

The path to the three waterfalls (Finsterbachfall, Schleierfall, Kesselfall) goes uphill through a forest of spruce and deciduous trees. The moderately difficult climb leads over four bridges. Four benches invite to rest and linger. Since this trail is also a nature trail, hikers learn about water, geology, wildlife, and plants.

Parking: small shady spot on Dorfstraße in Sattendorf
