The Maunzenweiher, alongside the neighboring Buchrainweiher, Kesselbruchweiher, Försterwiesenweiher, and Jacobiweiher, is one of the somewhat larger ponds in the Frankfurt city forest. These main attractions are usually well-attended and can always be easily incorporated into bike tours and walks. From the Maunzenweiher to the Buchrainweiher, there is a small, fun trail with roots and stairs at the end.

Goetheruh

Highlight • Monument

A smaller lookout hill a little to the north in the forest near the Goetheturm is called Goetheruh. Whether Goethe really rested here is not proven. You can enjoy the tranquility, for example, on or on the sandstone column that the Scottish artist Ian Hamilton Finlay designed for this place. The inscription “Arcadia, a kingdom in Sparta's neighborhood” naturally comes from Goethe, from his “Faust”.
