Rimdidim Rock

Highlight • Natural Monument

A narrow forest path takes you past the Rimdidim rock. There is not much left of the beautiful view mentioned in the traditional saying. But the rocks are still impressive.

The tower was planned in 1891 by a Frankfurt engineering office and built by master carpenter Keil from Niederkainsbach with a height of 12 m. The tower is named after the former mayor of Darmstadt, Christian Karl Albrecht Ohly. The tower was built in 1891 by the Darmstadt section of the Odenwald Club.

Even if the tower is closed on weekdays, it is a great lonely MTB destination. Nice climb and top panoramas on the way. Anytime again 😀
