    We walk on a path to the Tretstein, a waterfall unique in the wider area between Spessart and Rhön.

    Author’s recommendation

    The routes I post are mostly circular routes of manageable length. They are not sporting challenges but are fun and usually feature highlights such as very beautiful views, peculiarities of nature, or historical features.

    I try to convey the highlights with beautiful, selected pictures. So please also browse through the pictures and read the captions. All routes are, of course, personally experienced and not created on a computer.

    Have fun!

    Safety information

    The paths around the waterfall are very steep and not to be underestimated when wet.

    Tips and suggestions

    Tretstein Waterfall on Wikipedia

    Roadbook

    See GPX file 

    Navigation with the Outdooractive app is very easy: download the route offline and follow the voice instructions.

    WARNING: It is tempting to walk on the parallel path on the other side of the Weizenbach - perhaps as one has been used to for decades. But anyone who goes through the newly installed barrier of the hotel will be taught better after a few hundred meters. You can no longer get onto the correct path without wet feet. All progress around the hotel is blocked with boring construction fences. No sympathy points for the hotel!

    Public transport

    Travel by public transport is not very practical in this case.

    Please use the route planner for travel. This is easier and more reliable than any description.
