Around the melting pond there are beautifully designed wooden benches with ❤️ motifs to relax your soul and your legs. Message boards are also set up to allow you to immerse yourself in deeper thoughts.

The Kuckans Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Geologically interesting trail, because you actually find volcanic rock here (information board). In addition, an ascent to the Ravensberg starts here with nice surprises (Reinhardsbrunnen). Botanically, the climb is varied and leads through a particularly beautiful beech forest.

Teufelsstieg Trail

Highlight • Trail

Nice way, but you should be free from giddiness. The path is quite narrow and sometimes steep over roots and without railings.
