Be sure to try the pea soup. A delicious snack before crossing the bridge.

To the right of the Carl Braun Hut, near the bench, a steep trail winds through the forest, amidst leaves and branches. If you don't stray from the trail (like I did 🙈), you'll emerge above the ICE bridge near Adelshausen.

This shelter was built in 1905

The hut, built around 1905, was the first shelter in the Melsungen city forest. Its name is derived from the snake-shaped branches that the builder, the Melsungen local history and beautification association, placed above the entrance. The plaque above it reads: "In this cool valley, where the snakes lived, take a rest from the haste of everyday life." Between the two world wars, the snake house offered a beautiful view of the northern Fulda valley. On old maps you can still read that the place was described as "Hercules' view." The residents of the lung sanatorium therefore often walked there and left many "entries" on the interior walls of the hut; the oldest plaque dates from 1924. The structure (oak wood) of the hut dates back to the time it was built. Source: https://www.lauftreff-melsungen.de/2014-05-01_bericht_historische_Wanderung_1.Mai_2014.pdf
