ラインハルトの森の天然記念物・トップ20

The Holzapetal valley is very idyllic, with its meandering, babbling stream and partly shady forests. Unfortunately, there are almost only forest roads in the valley proper and no proper hiking trails.

What a tree population. Monumental and mystical at the same time. Cheers to nature! I was thrilled.

It's amazing how trees can grow if you let them.

The Sababurg Primeval Forest in the Reinhardswald Nature Park is one of the most beautiful destinations in northern Hesse! Three different circular trails, two of which can be easily combined, lead through the primeval forest. Strictly speaking, the primeval forest is not a primeval forest, but rather a former grazing forest. The approximately 300-year-old grazing oaks and beeches acquired their current gnarled shape through intensive grazing. Partly over footbridges, you walk through this primeval forest and encounter one special tree after another. Definitely worth a visit! Parking is available right next to the primeval forest. There is also a well-serviced bus stop.

The Rothbalzer pond was artificially created and was probably owned by the Wahlshausen monastery. In the 16th century the ponds were taken over by the Hessian landgraves and managed by a pond master. Trout, carp and pike were caught here until 1866. The paths around the pond run on slightly elevated embankments lined with trees. A very nice place.
