Staumauer Niddastausee

The Niddastausee is beautifully located, the circular hike is easy to walk and there is a nice bistro at the campsite for a break.

The reservoir is beautiful, the circular route is easy to walk and drive on

Great round trip
Especially recommended for children with a bike.

Beautiful tar road all around invites you to go for a walk and relax, children's playground available

Nice destination walks around the reservoir

Great view over the lake!

The dam was renovated only the year before last. Always nice at the reservoir.

A great circular route with easy parking. Parking is partly chargeable. Day ticket 4 euros,

On foot or with the inline skates, alone or with the family - a nice destination. The walk to the old town is also worthwhile.

Nice round

I like to do this tour with friends and my wife, the opportunities for peace and quiet when the weather is nice are enormous.

Nice far view, super round trip for families.

Great little reservoir!

The dam with the approx. 65ha large reservoir was built in 1968-1970 and is mainly used for flood protection, as well as (by the way) power generation and leisure activities.

The Niddastausee was built between 1968 and 1970 and is fed by the Nidda, which rises at the Heroldskopf and flows through Schotten, which has many pretty half-timbered houses. The Niddastausee is 65 hectares in size and is therefore one of the largest lakes in Hesse. The dam is used with the hydroelectric power station to generate electricity and as a local recreation area. Some shore areas are under nature protection and serve as a biotope for animals and plants.

Also suitable for Nordic Walking.
