Our visit to the Triberg waterfall had been a bit of a disappointment, so when we drove up to the Todtnau waterfalls I was a bit apprehensive. Fortunately, I was happily surprised with the fact that the experience was way different. There is a small and free parking lot on top of the hill. There is a sign of the area and the paths and an arc that marks the start of the trail. There is no ticketbooth and so you can enter for free. The way down is a bit steep at the beginning, but very doable. I would recommend good footwear though, if you have any. Before to long, you'll see the top part of the waterfall. It wasn't crowded at all and the paths were all well maintained. In some places a little canopy was made and there were some laid-back chairs to enjoy the view. Also, you could really get close to the waterfall and even wade through the shallow parts. The waterfall may not be as high as the Triberg once, but I found them just as spectacular and beautiful. The road leads you down to a platform half way the waterfall, were you'll get some more spectacular views. You can either go further down into the valley and to the foot of the waterfall, but we crossed a bridge and decided to take the path back up again. This lead us back up to the main path. This route is circular and makes for a nice and varied hike. Especially the path back up, on the other side of the waterfall, is quite adventurous. It leads you past nice rock formations and it has stairs.

This waterfall is by no means gigantic. However, the walk there is quiet and you are surrounded by breathtaking nature as the noises of every day life quickly fade. It's an easy enough walk for anyone to do and worth the trip.

From the Elbachsee platform we wanted to enjoy more of the local Black Forest. We checked the walking trials (which are really good highlighted) and made the choice to walk from there to the Sankenbach waterfalls and the lake not far from it. Let's be clear it is no easy walk especially because we also had to walk the same way back (3,5 kilometers one way). First part was easy and flat through the forest but then there was a steep decent to the waterfalls (sometimes slippery). Because of the draught the waterfall was not big but the surrounding and the thick forest are magnificent. From the waterfall another decent (but not so long this time) to the lake. Around the lake is a well maintained gravel road also suitable for bikes. At one side of the lake is a kind of small beach and several benches. The view from the lake over the Black Forest surroundings and hills is beautiful. I also took a dive in the lake, temperature was perfect. Of course we had to take the same way back to Elbachsee platform (around 3,5 kilometres) and now it was climb after climb. Not easy but worth it. You can also enter the lake by bike and foot from Baiersbronn side. Much more easy and shorter but of course not the same and beautiful experience.

A lovely walk in any seasons. Superb scenery, plentiful parking and well-marked path alongside spectacular waterfall makes for an excellent day out.

We were told to park at the train station but instead we drove up the road toward St. Johann and parked for free at a designated parking lot with trail signs. We then hiked 2 km down to the top of the waterfall and a picnic restaurant area. It rained the whole time which made the steps slippery but was still beautiful. We returned another way but there were many other trails, including down to the bottom of the waterfall -- next time.
