The vantage point "Kanzel" (399 meters) with the Friedrich-Meyer-Hütte (shelter) is always worth a detour. From here you have a great view of the Edersee, especially the Hammerbergspitze (when the water is low, the whole headland comes to light) and Waldeck Castle. The four tree-trunk chairs are very inviting for a rest, from where you have the best view while you're having a meal.

Here you can look across the lake to Waldeck Castle and enjoy the peace and quiet. There are also several information boards

The pulpit with its four thrones and the refuge is a beautiful resting place with a wonderful view of the Edersee and Waldeck Castle.
