ショッテン周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

Beautiful fish pond, great landscape, easy H circular route

One of the few bridges on the former route. It was built specifically for a farm track and is still in use today.

From the looks of things, the tower seems to have been left to its own devices... if something doesn't happen soon, it will be demolished... which would be a real shame

Once a reservoir for floating wood, then a trout farm and now a nature reserve. An idyllic spot on earth.

The leisure lake is a popular meeting place for athletes, weekend trippers, anglers, walkers and those seeking relaxation. Boat rental, surfing and sailing school, a large children's playground and sunny meadows provide variety. The 5 kilometer long asphalted circular path around the reservoir is ideal for inline skaters, cyclists and skaters as well as for a relaxing walk. Benches and sensory loungers invite you to rest along the way.

The Bismarck Tower on the Taufstein marks the highest point in the Vogelsberg Nature Park. The 28-meter-high observation tower was built between 1906 and 1910 and there are 101 steps inside that lead up to the top. When visibility is good, the Bismarck Tower offers an excellent panoramic view of the neighboring Hoherodskopf and the adjacent low mountain ranges. Unfortunately, the Bismarck Tower on the Taufstein, built from blue basalt, has suffered massive structural damage. A safe visit to the tower is therefore no longer guaranteed. The immediate area around the tower on the small plateau of the highest elevation of the Vogelsberg has therefore been cordoned off with a fence for some time. The climb to this impressive building is nevertheless worthwhile because it is somehow a mystical place and, like the other Bismarck Towers in Germany, a historical monument that should definitely be preserved and restored. Future generations will thank us later. http://www.vogelsbergtourist.de/bismarckturm-taufstein.html

The Nidda rises at Hoherodskopf, flows through Schotten in a small stream and is stopped by the Niddatalsperre directly at the southern end of the town. The result is the 65 hectare Niddastausee and a wonderful local recreation area. Surrounded by meadows and forests, the reservoir is one of the largest lakes in Hesse. The recreational lake is a popular meeting place for athletes, weekend trippers, anglers, walkers and those looking for relaxation. Boat rentals, surfing and sailing schools, a large children's playground and sunny meadows provide variety. https://www.tourist-schotten.de/schotten/niddastausee.html

The Nidda rises at Hoherodskopf, flows through Schotten in a small stream, and is held back by the Niddatalsperre (Nidda Dam) just south of the town. The result is the 65-hectare Nidda Reservoir, a wonderful local recreation area. Surrounded by meadows and forests, the reservoir is one of the largest lakes in Hesse. The recreational lake is a popular meeting place for athletes, weekenders, anglers, walkers, and those seeking relaxation. Boat rentals, a surfing and sailing school, a large children's playground, and sunbathing lawns provide a variety of activities. https://www.tourist-schotten.de/schotten/niddastausee.html
