Ravenna Gorge

A trail also runs through the ravine as part of the Black Forest Homeland Path (Heimatpfad Hochschwarzwald).

The roughly four-kilometre-long gorge runs from the Höllental up to the village of Breitnau on the plateau and lies within its municipal boundaries.

At the upper end of the gorge is the mill of Großjockenmühle which dates to 1883 and is a protected monument.

The lower part of the gorge is spanned by the 37-metre-high Ravenna Bridge, the viaduct of the Höllental Railway.

Also here is Saint Oswald’s Chapel (built 1148) and the Hotel Hofgut Sternen, in which Marie Antoinette stayed in 1770 and Goethe in 1779.
