Urff Valley in Kellerwald-Edersee Nature Park

Highlight • Forest

The designation as wildly romantic fits it well. The big brook makes its way through the forest idyll.

Historic boundary stones in Naturpark Kellerwald-Edersee

Highlight • Monument

Unfortunately the way from the parking lot is blocked because of the fallen trees. If Ben made a detour, the tour would be nice after all and the ruin is definitely worth it!

October 29, 2022,HE: Wildromatisches Urfftal (Route 1)

Another hiking area in the Kellerwald, the Urfftal. We started from the snow white village of Bergfreiheit. First a detour to the Schnittchenhaus. This is where the story of Snow White is said to have taken place. The Brothers Grimm created the world-famous fairy tale from it.
Then along the Urff to the Urffsee. We went backwards through the near-natural …

A very nice tour with lots of water for the dogs 🐕🐕... thanks to @Hesta for the template!
From Schiffelborn we first walked down into the valley to Lake Oberurffer and then always parallel to the Urff towards Bergfreiheit. Unfortunately, some damage to the forest can also be seen here, but the path with small streams flowing down the slope …

A really lovely New Year's Eve walk and end of the year. The Urff Valley is beautiful even in winter. I will definitely do this tour again in the spring when the lilies of the valley are in bloom.

Dear @Deleted User, I was also very surprised at how much beauty there was to see on such a comparatively short route.

And if you don't just walk in and find out about opening times, you can even visit a lot of things.

Best wishes 🙋🏻‍♀️ 🐕

July 12, 2025,Wildromantisches Urfftal - Auf dem Grund eines Urmeeres

The tour starts at the hiking car park at Lake Urff.

A beautiful circular hike along the Urff River through a wild and romantic valley. But first, it's about a 2.5-kilometer climb past the hiking cliff at Orthberg. The next section leads back to the valley via a beautiful singletrack trail. Today, we skipped the worthwhile detour to Bergfreiheit, as …

Great hike along the Urft. End on the ruins of Löwenstein. Snack station closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Interesting complex around the tower def Löwenburg.

The Lily of the Valley Trail is a truly scenic hiking trail with magnificent, atmospheric forest views. In many places, it's so quiet that you have to listen carefully. Sometimes you can hear a stream trickling by (the Urff) but can't see it. The greenery predominates, and if you're up for a break, stop by the snack bar at Löwenstein …
