Schönderling Legend Mural

Highlight • Monument

"After seven farms were established on the Osterrain, which lies at the foot of the Hegkopf, the people around cleared the land and lived contentedly for a long time, but then envy and discord arose among them, the devil rejoiced and saw the quarreling place as One night, he was flown with a big sack and put the seven yards and their inhabitants in the sack A woman who was watching over her child realized what was happening She picked up a knife and slit the sack As the Devil headed away towards Mettermich, he lost one house after another, so the place lay in a different place and the houses were far apart. "
(Excerpt from the local chronicle 675 years Schönderling)

Medieval Wasteland of Osterrain

Highlight • Historical Site

Site board for the archaeological investigations on the Osterrain on the occasion of the 700th anniversary of the village of Schönderling. The information board is intended to convey the results of the magnetometer prospecting and site inspections in spring 2017 to all interested parties and to bring part of the history of the region closer. And you have a wonderful view from the desert.

Heegkopf Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Forest hut or company buildings of the state forests a bit hidden but you can find it. I could imagine that the hut used to belong to the former basalt quarry.

Heegkopfsee

Highlight • Lake

The Heegkopfsee emerged from a former basalt quarry and is now even a geotope succumbs about 1 km south of the village of Schönderling. These are two former basalt quarries in which Rhön basalt was extracted. The western breach is circular and a lake has formed in the mining area. In the eastern break there is one
The dismantling wall in the olivine basalt is still in good condition, but I have to say that there is no longer a lot of water in the lake.

View of Schondra and Oberleichtersbach from Hegkopf

Highlight • Viewpoint

If you hike from Schönderling towards Hegkopf and look back at the landscape at the edge of the forest, you have a wonderful view of the villages around Schondra and Oberleichtersbach. There is an information board on a panorama stone that provides information about the villages. A new roofed seating area has recently been installed at this point.
