Bad Wildungen also has a rich history with many cultural highlights to offer. Visit Friedrichstein Castle, an impressive Baroque palace from the 18th century, or the historic spa gardens with their magnificent flowerbeds and fountains.

For culinary delights, be sure to try local specialities such as the traditional Ahle Wurscht - a smoked raw sausage made from pork - or the famous Hessian dish Handkäs' mit Musik (hand cheese with onions).

If it rains, you can spend a day at the Vitalpark - a modern spa and wellness centre - where you can relax and pamper your body.

The most beautiful places in Bad Wildungen are undoubtedly the Kellerwald-Edersee National Park and the picturesque half-timbered houses in the old town of Bad Wildungen itself. Here you will find many cosy cafés, restaurants and shops to stroll around and linger.

Wir sind heute die Tour gefahren Landschaftlich wunder schön. Leider sind zum Teil Wege schwer oder auch nicht mehr befahrbar. Es gibt aber immer Möglichkeiten die Strecken zu umfahren. Vielen Dank für das kennenlernen dieses Gebietes.

Reinhardshäuser Rundwanderweg - Hutewald und Wiesentäler by Thomas
November 08, 2021 · Community
Wirklich schöne Halbtagsrunde. Hauptsächlich im Wald und durch Täler, auf befestigten und unbefestigten Wegen. Heute im Herbst hatten die Buchenmischwälder mit ihrer wundervollen Färbung einen ganz besonderen Reiz. Mache schöne Fernblicke waren auch dabei. Alles in allem eine einfache, technisch anspruchslose, aber trotzdem sehr schöne Tour.
