Bathildis Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

In 1894, the last reigning Prince Friedrich zu Waldeck and Pyrmont (1865 - 1946) had a hunting lodge built here, which he named after Princess Bathildis (1873 - 1962). Their social commitment is still remembered by many Waldeckers today. After World War I the hunting lodge was demolished. The Bathildishütte was created from the former stables and served as a hunting lodge until it was declared a national park. There is a huge Douglas fir near the hut.

September 11, 2021,Von Altenlotheim zur Bathildishütte und zurück durch den NP
Today we went back to the national park. I started at the Koppe parking lot in Altenlotheim. The destination was the Bathildishütte. From there it went back over the Quernst to the car.
It was all there, rain, a lot of rain, even more rain but also sun. Some paths are currently not easy to walk because they are very …

Today we went through the old beech forests of the Kellerwald National Park.

The first signs of spring appearing again this year, but also the traces of past storms in the NP.

A very nice hike in the beech forests of the Kellerwald, starting in Frebershausen, the Quernstkapelle and on a circular route back to Frebershausen.

We agree: today it should be a hike through the beech forests of the Kellerwald. We start in Frebershausen and first hike to the Quernst Chapel. When the weather is clear, the view from up here must be magnificent - but we caught a hazy day and can only guess what mountains and heights can be seen in the distance.
