Hiking

A small facility with a small Kneipp basin in which you can tread water. There was a small village here around 1400, which was also mentioned in documents. In the 14th century, the spring, which is now the Kneipp facility, was used to water the cattle of travelers. When the Kneipp basin was built, old shards were found that are on display in the museum in Wiesbaden.

Hiking

Not a Kneipp pool, but a water treading facility 🤣🤣
and the first covered shelter after about 12 km.
If it was raining like today, we would have liked to have found one earlier so we could at least rest in the dry.
