Largest oxbow lake of the Nidda (29,000 m²), idyllically situated in the Niedwald.

Hiking

The Grill'sche Altarm is located directly on the Nidda with its riverside paths and the Niedwald. One or the other park bench (partly with table) invites you to take a break - and there is a lot to see: various geese (mute swans, gray geese, Canada geese, Nile geese), mallards, tufted ducks, cormorants, gray herons, whales, kingfishers, frogs, dragonflies, Toads, turtles, nutrias, woodpeckers, ... (Should not be fed of course!)

Nearby there are many more oxbow lakes, a playground and also gastronomy (Anglerheim, Niddastrand).
