A real insider tip for lovers of waterfalls and for those looking for a shady, cool spot in the summer. The waterfall is impressive, not primarily because of the rushing down of water, but because of the height: the Wissenbach falls about 20 meters into the depth of the semicircular rock basin.
The rest area was renewed in 2016.
