From the vantage point you have a great view of the stone dam. The dam was completed in 1914 and was the largest dam in Europe at the time. The prestige project of the German Reich was even visited by Kaiser Wilhelm II during the construction period. However, the opening ceremony in 1914 was canceled due to the start of the First World War and was never made up for. Today, the Edersee is still the second largest reservoir in Germany and a popular destination.

Great viewing platform with a view over the dam wall, located directly on the Urwaldsteig Edersee. A table and benches invite you to rest...

The ascent here is not easy without a certain level of fitness and a little strenuous for untrained people, but the view of the Edersee and the dam compensates for the effort.

This viewpoint is always worth a visit. The most impressive view of the dam. Here you can take the most beautiful photos of the building.

Recommended - from this point you have a very nice insight into the construction of the dam. However, it is only easy to reach for "off-road" ...
