Far from the hustle and bustle of modern life lies the mountain town of Ulrichstein, a state-recognized health resort. Ulrichstein is the highest town in Hesse, where peace and clean air create a highly relaxing environment.

The town's houses are clustered at the foot of the Schlossberg, whose ruined peak at an altitude of 614 meters offers a fantastic view of the surrounding landscape and into the distance. The Vogelsberg Garden, the Museum im Vorwerk with its diverse events, and the Protestant church offer cultural variety.

For those seeking more active activities, the numerous cycling and hiking trails, such as the Ohmtal Cycle Path, the Vogelsberg Volcano Ring, or the so-called "Weitblick Tour," are recommended.
