ホーエンガンダーンの天然記念物・トップ20

The viewing point on P16, where you should definitely plan a break and enjoy the fascinating view of the Eichsfeld and the distant horizon. In autumn, a colorful spectacle awaits you here.

The Wendebach reservoir is a natural lake that was created in 1973 by artificial damming for flood protection. The area is used as a recreation area. The bathing area has a bathing jetty and a non-swimmer area, which is looked after by the DLRG.

Great view which is of course even better in winter. When descending on some parts of the route, however, it is very slippery. In the morning everything is frozen rock hard and then the sun shines and it thaws on the surface. Then it's a slide.

This is certainly one of the most beautiful vantage points in the area. In the foreground is the horseshoe-shaped Werra loop and behind it the Hessian mountains build up. On the right you can see Ludwigstein Castle, opposite is the Kaufunger Forest and on the left is the Hohe Meissner.

This highlight is on the premium hiking trail 16 (P16). From here you have a wonderful view over the forests and mountains. It is certainly most beautiful in spring and summer, when the trees are blooming in beautiful green, as well as in golden autumn with colorful foliage.

A great swimming lake including a small restaurant. Great place for a break or as a destination for a tour to have a cool drink at the end. The “Taverne am See” restaurant is only open in summer. Opening times and information can be found on their website: https://wendebachstausee.de/index.php?id=der-stausee

The path is partially overgrown. But the goal is worth it. With a bench to sit on, you can really enjoy the view here

What a beautiful piece of earth. If the weather is right, you don't want to go any further.
