Hiking

Even though the lake has dried up, it still has a lot of beautiful things to offer - a visit is highly recommended.

Hiking

It's especially beautiful to walk through the Werbetal valley and follow the stream to the Eder River. Normally, the Edersee extends all the way to Nieder-Werbe. When the lake is drained during the summer months, the Werbetal valley becomes a true natural paradise with wonderful grasses.

Hiking

When the valley is dry, it's a wonderful place to walk along the old paths. It's interesting to see how quickly different plants and animals spread.
