Art in the Moat of Schloss Gedern

Highlight • Monument

Now that's what I call a real art project - you don't know where to look first. The best view of the entire work is from the bridge.

Rest Area With View of Hoherodskopf

Highlight • Viewpoint

To see the 764 meter high Hoherodskopf, the visibility has to be very good, but the distant view is definitely worth the pause.

Eselsbrücke over the Nidder

Highlight • Bridge

If you are agile enough and careful, you can dangle your feet over the water here, because there is no railing to stop you on this rustic bridge.

February 2, 2025,Eisenpfad ❤️ Hirzenhain 🤍 Gedern 🥾 Oberhessen

On a crisp, cold Sunday, I was on the Iron Trail near Hirzenhain - a tour that was recommended to me by @Sven 🥾⛰️.

The Iron Trail is a 23-kilometer-long cultural-historical-geological circular trail. Along the route, 10 large information boards provide information about the history and geology of the region.
