Schwarzbachtal (Black Brook Valley) near Hochwaldhausen

Highlight • River

Enchanted and mythical describes the Schwarzbachtal best! Because of the dark rock, the water appears really black. The green of the trees and the moss stands in wonderful contrast to this.

Schwarzbach Stream in the Vogelsberg Mountains

Highlight • River

The Schwarzbachtal near Ilbeshausen in the Hoher Vogelsberg in Hesse. The lower part resembles a gorge. In the upper part you can find mystical basalt formations. Several hiking trails invite you to explore.

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Nice hut that is not so draughty... dry, protected from the wind... and if you have a lighter with you... there is a candle on the table... there would also be room outside
