Beautiful place that invites you to linger

In the “Winshäuser Teich” nature reserve, a remarkable mosaic of several endangered and protected habitat types with rare plant and animal communities can be found in a small area. The “Winshäuser Teich”, which gives the reserve its name, with its wide, partly muddy, partly structurally rich shoreline with extensive stands of water lilies, reeds, tall shrubs and large sedges, represents important retreats and spawning structures for many water-dependent animals. Birds such as water rails, moorhens and reed warblers breed in the thicket of the shore vegetation. The larvae of endangered dragonflies develop in the pond mud. The water biotope is of particular conservation value as a habitat for the endangered tree frog. To the north of the pond, a valuable, rare bristle grass meadow with heather pinks, junipers and tridents complements the nature reserve. In the west, the strictly protected broad-leaved orchid and rare grasses thrive in extensive, flower-rich wet meadows. Numerous small bushes and a small willow forest enrich the area with valuable structures. (Source rp-Gießen)

At the parking lot at the Seegerteichhütte there is a "shoe washing area" - a nice idea for a small access to the nearby stream.

A beautiful, large pond - I was able to experience it with a foamy tadpole frenzy.

In winter the water lily pond doesn't look like much. But many water lilies will bloom again this year.

The ponds near Elmsdorf (!), not Emsdorf, belong to a nature conservation area near the Elmsdorfer Kreuz. The town of 'Elmsdorf' used to be located here, which was abandoned after the turmoil of the 30 and finally the 7 Years' War. The residents moved to Emsdorf (Electoral Mainz) or Erksdorf (Hessian), but kept their fields, which later often led to disputes. The deserted cemetery was used as a military cemetery for the soldiers who died in the battle near Emsdorf. There is a memorial stone there today. A stone from the Elmsdorf church was used to renew (expand) the Emsdorf church in 1748. In 1760 it served as a hospital for those wounded in the battle on July 16, 1760 in the neutral Emsdorf, which was part of the Electorate of Mainz.

A sudden idyll on the cycle path that should not be missed.

A beautiful lake, a good parking and starting point for hikes that we won't soon forget: early in the morning the bass booms from the huge JBL Bluetooth boxes at the Seegerteichhütte. Three people clean up the leftovers from the night's party and ask us to help with the leftover cool Veltins!!! The start of a hike has never been so difficult for me. Rosenthal people are simply hospitable.
