Hiking

In the nature reserve Sinngrund grows a botanical peculiarity, the chess flower. Flowering time is late April to early May. In 1993 she was voted flower of the year. At the Sinn with its regular floods, the lily plant thrives especially well.

Hiking

The meadows in the Sinngrund were cultivated at the beginning of the 19th century as so-called water meadows. The meadows were flooded in spring to thaw the frozen soil and promote early growth. This brought the advantage that twice a year could be mowed.
