View of the Edersee from Ziegenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

You may notice the trees and bushes that are sometimes quite gnarled. The use of pasture by goats during the last centuries and their browsing on the plants is one of the reasons for this. In addition, there is the barren soil and the dry rocks, which only allow sparse vegetation.

For hikers, however, it is a very attractive path, because the atmosphere is beautiful and the views of the Edersee are magnificent.

View of Waldeck Castle and the Edersee from Elsterberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Already at the starting point of the jungle trail you are expected with a magnificent view. Below the vantage point, the Edersee spreads out with its tree-covered mountains and in the north, Waldeck Castle towers far above the water. Especially in autumn, when the mighty beech forests turn golden and red, goosebumps are guaranteed.

July 7, 2022,🇩🇪 Schloss Waldeck - Waldeck und zurück zur Talstation (gelaufen)

Parking is free at the valley station. Then take the cable car to the top. Do what you want at the top...and then comfortably down to the left or right of the castle.
