Mountain biking

The Nidda "cliff" is a mystical place. You can see a tongue of lava that cooled down around 13 million years ago, which protrudes in the lower part of the steep slope and is partly flanked by exposed basalt rubble. The stream murmurs in the deeply cut valley floor. A small, adventurous-looking trail leads down.
