    The heart of the nature reserve. There are great views of the lake everywhere along the way.

        Until 1982, basalt was mined in the Dietesheim quarries. Today, there is a 61-hectare recreational area here with lakes, forests and rock formations that are not only very photogenic, but also unique for the Rhine-Main region. 22 hectares are made up of the lakes through which the groundwater broke to the surface after the quarries were closed, allowing the impressive landscape to emerge. Over 120,000 trees and 7,000 bushes were planted here. Today, it is growing wild everywhere, the trees are so overgrown that you only have a clear view of the lake landscape from some corners. Rare plants and animals have also settled here. The entire area around the Dietesheimer lakes includes the following lakes:

        Vogelsberger See
        Oberwaldsee
        Hansteinweiher
        Frankfurter See
        Röstersee
        Bellerbornsee
        Schüsselersee
        Betzensee
        Grüne See
