Excursions

 

The most beautiful sides of the region

There are also beautiful tourist locations outside the town of Lauterbach. Use your time for exciting day trips into the region – the surrounding area is full of historical significance. 

 

Stream tour - stroll along the most beautiful streams


The Lauterbach Stream Tour takes you, as the name already indicates, past the small, idyllic streams of the region. Most of the time on your stroll you will have the pleasant babbling of streams in your ear. Your route is ideal-typical for the northerly Vogelsberg: Gentle hills, unobstructed views, woodland and meadow landscapes, permeated by little streams, solitary trees and biotopes. The imposing Schloss Eisenbach represents the cultural high point of your excursion.

Hainig tower - a tower with a view


Southeast of Lauterbach rises the local mountain of the district town in the Vogelsberg, the Hainig (417m). On the Hainig, in the midst of an old stand of oaks, stands the Hainig Tower, a formerly wooden lookout tower, which was first erected in 1882 and then rebuilt as a stone tower in 1907.


The Hainig Tower is a popular destination for hikers in the Lauter Valley. Even the ascent to the Hainig Tower is beautiful, whether you start from Lauterbach or from Eisenbach Castle. The oaks surrounding the Hainig Tower are said to be up to a thousand years old.


From the Hainig Tower you can enjoy uninterrupted distant views over the Lauter Valley and deep into the Rhön Mountains to the east and to Fulda. The door to the ascent is usually open during the hiking season (April to October).

Castle town of schlitz - like in a fairytale


The fairytale town behind more than seven hills… Picturesquely embedded between the uplands of Vogelsberg, Rhoen and Knül, lies the Castle Town of Schlitz. It is a medieval jewel and balm for the soul. Not just because of the heavenly country idyll, but also because something very independent and special has remained here.


Phrases such as “the magic of an old countship" or “traditional culture" say too little – you have to have seen it with your own eyes. Discover the romantic town of Schlitz on your next visit!

The Wasserkuppe Rhön - the highest mountain in Hesse and Rhön


950 metres above sea-level, the Wasserkuppe Rhoen is the highest mountain in Hesse. But it is not only the height of the Wasserkuppe, but also the eventful history surrounding it that make the mountain a special attraction in Hesse and Rhoen.

We would not want to conceal from you the historic significance of the Wasserkuppe: It was, for example, an important tool in the Cold War and was used as the starting point for the first glider flight.
