Ravenna Gorge

Local nameRavennaschlucht
LocationBreitnau, Germany

The Ravenna Gorge is a gorge in the Black Forest in southwest Germany. It is a narrow side valley of the Höllental, through which the Ravenna stream flows. A trail also runs through the ravine as part of the Black Forest Homeland Path. 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. The name of the gorge is probably derived from the French word ravine which means "gorge".The wild mountain brook of the Ravenna tumbles over several waterfalls in the gorge. The two biggest falls are the Great Ravenna Fall which is 16 metres high and the Little Ravenna Fall which descends through a height of 6 metres.

In former times, there were several water mills along the stream. Some are still visible today within the gorge and one or two are well preserved.
