A very beautiful piece of nature and attractive in every season. A good integration of tourism and visitors is practiced here on the Rothaarsteig. Many hiking trails for all types of sports, a playground, a ski and toboggan slope, a lookout tower, restaurants, a barbecue hut, a ranger station and the Ginsburg are all in the immediate vicinity. Every year, the biggest events here are KulturPur and the Giller Gymnastics Festival.
