Here is one of many designated "core areas for nature conservation" in the Hessian state forest. There the forest is left to its own devices in order to promote rare animal and plant species. A bench on a small ledge invites you to take a break from hiking or cycling. Children have built a teepee here out of wood and stones. There is also a beautiful distant view of the mountains. A detour is worthwhile!
