Small path/trail along the old monastery walls

Highlight • Trail

The path is very shady and the high wall looks overwhelming ... better go through the monastery!

Die Mengelshäuser Teiche

Highlight • Lake

The Mengelshausen ponds are located in the middle of the forest between Lich and Garbenteich and make an enchanted impression.
When running in the woods, the ponds are always a welcome change.

A shady path leads along and over the weather through the Gottesackertal, which is particularly suitable for very warm summer days.

August 23, 2024,Auenwald, Gottesackertal und Kloster Arnsburg - Runde ab Lich
Our second tour in central Hesse today went from Lich to Arnsburg Monastery, a well-preserved medieval building. Most of the route runs through shady forests and partly along expansive fields. A pleasant and relaxed tour, but without any other special highlights.
