The Hilschweiher is an idyllic spot in the middle of the Edenkobener valley. The pond was created in 1963 by the city of Edenkoben as a recreational area. The Triefenbach and Hilsch waterfalls were dammed to a 200 m long and 45 m wide lake. The Hilschweiher is ideal for a Sunday trip with the whole family, from here you can reach the Rietburgbahn or the Villa Ludwigshöhe in about half an hour.

Beautiful little Weiher with small boats and Gastrobetrieb on the upper Weiherseite. In the year 462 two aquatic king-children are said to have found rest and security on their flight.
