Here comes the Schwalm. From this hardly noticeable trickle it grows to almost 100 kilometers, making it the longest purely Hessian river. The name dates back to the 8th century and means flowing water, steam or fog water.

Here is the place that stands for the beginning of the Schwalm, with a length of 97 km and then flows into the Eder

The source can be reached via a small footpath. Unfortunately (September 2020) it was completely dry.

This Schwalm in Hesse has a smaller sister on the Lower Rhine.
The Schwalm (Dutch Swalm) on the Lower Rhine is a 45.3 km long, southeastern and right tributary of the Maas in North Rhine-Westphalia (Germany) and in the Netherlands. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwalm_(Maas)
