Upper Bridge, Kaskadenschlucht

Highlight • Bridge

In the upper part of the Kaskadenschlucht this is the first bridge from the direction of "Rotes Moor", from which one gets a first impression of the small brook, which at the end carries some water masses with it.

Moor lake in the Red Moor

Highlight • Lake

The Rotes Moor nature reserve is one of the last raised bogs in Hesse. After the peat mining was stopped in 1986, the restoration of the moor began. In the course of this, this pond was also created.
