The name Elfengrund goes back to old legends and myths. The elves have their apartment in the hidden Elfengrund. , They are small, good-natured creatures who bathe in the
Meadow dew and dry themselves with wool moss. They love dance, music and singing. On days
They are invisible, but come to the meadows of the Elfengrund in the moonlight and perform their merry dance there." (Pippart, Wilhelm: The Blackberry Man)

The waterfall in Elfengrund is one of the largest tufa springs in Hesse. The Gatterbach, which rises from nearby springs, has over time piled up the limestone tuff on mosses through the constant supply of lime deposits and formed steps for waterfalls.
The new viewing platform allows you to get very close to the waterfalls.
This place has already had a magical attraction in the past and a legend says that the elves would dance here in the moonlight.
