The Schwarza River rises near Scheibe-Alsbach at an elevation of 717 meters above sea level. The water rises from a great depth at a fracture between red sandstone and slate, reaching the surface at a constant temperature of 6 degrees Celsius. It was enclosed in 1855. There are plenty of idyllic seating areas next to the spring. In winter, the water even feels warm when outside temperatures drop below 0 degrees Celsius.

Has the charm of a war memorial, only with eternal water instead of an eternal flame.

The root path alone from the Weidmannsheil refuge to the source is always beautiful :-) And then of course yesterday's refreshment at 32 degrees 🙋‍♂️
