Highlight • Natural

If you come from the direction of Eschwege and pass the Leuchtberg, you reach the beautifully situated Werraaue. The meadows here are lush green due to the abundance of shade.

Eschwege Old Town

Highlight • Historical Site

The first written mention can be found in a document of Emperor Otto II, who leaves in it the royal court and the settlement of his wife Theophanu as an heir. Their daughter Sophie founded in 1000 on the Cyriakusberg the woman's pen Eschwege, which was consecrated the holy Cyriakus and up to the introduction of the reformation in Hessen in the year 1527 existed (only today still remaining remainder of the pin is the Karlsturm). The market rights to the place was around 1188, and the city rights followed before the year 1249th From this period also originate the flourishing of the cloth and leather production to the modern times (Wikipedia)

View of Eschwege from Andreas-Höhe

Highlight • Viewpoint

The viewpoint at Andreas-Höhe offers a superb view of the Eschwege Basin. Two benches invite you to rest and take a break. It's especially worthwhile coming here in good weather (even if the journey by bicycle is a bit more challenging if you're coming from Eschwege). A definite recommendation from me!

Very nice bike path on the Werra. At this point it leads through the flat country between Eschwege and Wanfried.
