No water in sight, but a huge dam is visible. A few cars can also park there.

It was my first time in this sleepy but very idyllic little place.

A bench with a rushing stream nearby. The Bentreff. A 13.1 km long, northwestern tributary of the Wohra.

A great covered rest area. Resembling a mushroom, it's a welcome place to rest for both cyclists and hikers.

The line opened on May 1, 1914, and closed on December 19, 1981. The single-track Kirchhain–Gemünden railway, also known as the Wohra Valley Railway, was a branch line in Hesse. It branched off from the Kassel–Frankfurt railway in Kirchhain and ran along the Wohra River to Gemünden, where the Kellerwald Railway joined the line to Zimmersrode, which is also on the Main-Weser Railway. This provided a diversion to the Main-Weser Railway between Zimmersrode and Kirchhain. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahnstrecke_Kirchhain%E2%80%93Gem%C3%BCnden

A bench to relax on. Behind you is the Wohratal retention basin. It'll certainly look great if the water is dammed here.

Not a hut, but a seating area. However, this was blocked (October 1, 2023) by high seats that were under construction
