ハーブシュタインの山小屋＆キャビン・トップ20

A very nice place to stop for a break just outside Fulda. You can sit outside and enjoy the view and a delicious piece of cake.

Spacious shelter with seating inside and snack area including table outside not far from the Niddaquelle

The Nidda rises from a raised moor north of the baptismal font and southeast of the Sieben Ahorn at an altitude of around 720 m above sea level. NN. The source area is near the Niddaquelle hiking car park on the Hoher Vogelsberg ring road. The water doesn't bubble out of the spring here, but it flows. The point on the watercourse designated as the Nidda spring was originally actually a spring in the true sense. Today, this point marks a rather arbitrary spot on the still young stream with a steady flow: at most times of the year, the water can be followed a few hundred meters further uphill through the raised moor. Above the actual spring, near a crossroads, there is an enclosed outlet from a small well room. Parts of this stream flow out of the stream bed early on - not untypical for a raised moor - and flow into other streams. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nidda_(River)

Beautifully situated cabin right on the lake. Intended as a bird watching station.

One of the many local places to rest and linger.

One of the numerous rest stops on the Hoherodskopf.

The sign “Access for keg guests only” is always good for a smile. ;) In Master Yoda's words: “You are only allowed into the barrel as a barrel guest!”
