View of the Rappbode Dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the dam you have a wonderful panoramic view. But on weekends it's very crowded here when the weather is nice. No place where you can enjoy the peace!

Titan RT Suspension Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Coming from the top it is a nice place to take a break and to see the suspension bridge, zipline and bungee jumps. There is a lot going on here, you have to be attentive.

Rappbode Dam and Suspension Bridge

Highlight • Monument

For the adrenalin junkies among you, I recommend the rapid descent with the double rope slide 120 meters down into the valley just above the water of the dam Wendefurth.

View of the Rappbode Reservoir

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view is awesome - it's just a shame that broken branches and trunks are lying around everywhere. Hopefully there will be repairs here soon, then it will be really idyllic.
