Flößerteich, Upper Nidda Valley

Highlight • Lake

The young Nidda is stowed for the first time at the upper rafts pond. This was originally done for the Nidda raftsmen. By deliberately draining the pond water, wood transport in the lower reaches of the Nidda was also guaranteed in summer.

Nidda Spring

Highlight • River

If you want to know where the Nidda originates before it eventually flows into the Main, this is the place to go. It's also a great place to take a break.

Landgrafenborn Spring (Source of the Nidda)

Highlight • River

In contrast to the official Nidda spring, the river Nidda has its source here at Landgrafenborn. If you want to follow the entire course of the Nidda, you should start here. :-)

Bismarck Tower Taufstein

Highlight • Monument

The Bismarck Tower was built in 1910 as an observation tower. The structure was built from blue basalt and stands on the highest elevation of the Vogelsberg volcanic region. Unfortunately, the tower is currently not accessible because its supports are rusty and the masonry is dilapidated. A major refurbishment is required before you can climb back up and admire the gorgeous panorama.

Hoherodskopf Summit and Communications Tower

Highlight • Summit

The Hoherodskopf is not only the second highest mountain in the region, but also an adventure mountain. Sporting activities are combined here with a wide range of leisure activities for the whole family and extensive gastronomy. You should be surprised by the versatility on the Hoherodskopf adventure mountain.

Hoherodskopf Treetop Walk

Highlight • Structure

The treetop path consists mainly of wood and, with its filigree and natural construction, fits into the idyllic picture of the forest. Here you can walk over a secured wood and steel construction from treetop to treetop up to 15 m above the ground. As free as the birds of the forest, you move along the 600 m long treetop path over suspension bridges, the longest is 50 m long. An exciting walk between the treetops, where you can feel like the forest indians of the Amazon and say hello to the birds in the treetops. From the viewing platform you have a wide view of the Frankfurt skyline and at the latest you are reminded that civilization is not very far away.

Opening hours:
April to October daily 10 a.m. to 6 p.m
November to March see baumkronenpfad.de

Entry:
Adults €7.90, children & young people €3.90
