The charm of this hike lies in views into the Gutach valley (Vogtsbauernhöfe) and into the Breitenbach valley up to the Brandenkopf. From the Hausach castle, the hiker has the middle Kinzig valley laid out before them.
The name of the district "Gutach-Turm" refers to the watch and toll tower that was built here at the foot of the Bühlestein with a panoramic view of the Kinzig valley by the Lords of Hornberg.
In 1368, the Strasbourg stormed the castle-like residential tower, which was rebuilt but destroyed again in 1383. The ruin probably then crumbled completely and gradually disappeared from the view of the inhabitants, who speak not only of the "tower" but also of the "Schänzle". In 1973, the square foundation was uncovered in a voluntary action by the Gutach Schwarzwaldverein and the Historical Association Hausach.
The Husen castle ruin is the emblem of the town Hausach in the Kinzig valley. It is assumed that the Dukes of Zähringen built the first hill castle there in the 12th century - first mentioned as "Castrum Husen" in 1246. It was owned by the Counts of Freiburg. In 1303, the castle came through marriage of Verena of Freiburg to the Counts of Fürstenberg.
At the hiking parking lot in Gutach Turm, we orient ourselves - still without the Schwarzwaldverein's diamond trail marking - towards the Black Forest Railway/railroad crossing. There, the first signpost "Peterbauernhof 255 m" shows the way using yellow diamond marking - towards "Saumerloch 410 m". After a slight ascent, we reach this point and then face a nearly 400 m steep climb. Afterwards, the trail leads in a gentle curve to the left and comfortably downhill again. At the position "Spitzberg 400 m", we orient ourselves again to the left and follow the direction "Übem Fuggishof 450 m". On the way there, the first views open up of the Breitenbach valley and down to Hausach. After slight ups and downs, we stand "überm Fuggishof" and now turn onto the "Westweg" - red diamond - heading towards "Schmids Wanderecke 350 m". There we switch to the lovingly designed "Abenteuerpfad Hausach" to reach our destination - the "Burg Husen" - after a short distance and a short steep descent. This castle, first built in the 13th century, rises above the small town and can be visited during the summer months. The view over the entire Middle Kinzig valley is magnificent. Hausach, the "town under the castle", is also known for the Black Forest Railway. The return route leads first along the valley floor initially on a yellow diamond and then on the "Hansjakobweg" sign to the "Herz-Jesu-Bild 255 m" and to the "Parkplatz Tannenwald 250 m", past the sports stadium back to Gutach-Turm. At the signpost "Gutach-Turm Hirschgasse 248 m", we continue following the Hansjakobweg sign to "Gutach-Turm Gasthaus Hirsch 248 m" in the direction of "Am Schänzle". However, we leave the Hansjakobweg at Gasthaus Sonne and keep right on the unmarked street to reach the hiking parking lot after about 200 m.
An absolutely worth seeing and experiencing is a short detour over the federal road - traffic light crossing - to the Schänzle at the tower. The Hansjakobweg leads in windings to the beautifully located place with a shelter and offers a wonderful view of Gutach-Turm up to the Hausach ruins.
From tower to tower, indeed!
