Although various prohibition signs restrict access to Lake Meinhard, which is part of the local campsite, there are still some beautiful views with benches overlooking the former gravel pit in the Werra Valley.

A great, asphalted cycle path that leads past the fishing ponds of the ASV Eschwege and the Meinhardsee.

The Bruchteiche near Bad Sooden-Allendorf are ideal for leisurely circular walks (approx. 2km). You can also include them in the longer P7 circuit (15km). Numerous benches invite you to linger and enjoy the banks of the pond.
