Here in the Luthertal with its deep ravines and mystical, secluded places, the legends are still alive. Along the route, you will find wooden sculptures and panels with the associated legends.

Gently up and down, the circular route leads through a varied landscape. Seven sculptors created seven wooden sculptures for the legend trail in June 2002 during a symposium. They form a wonderful complement to the legend texts and the explanations of the depicted legend. The route is consistently well signposted and on the way two barbecue sites invite you to linger.
