View of the Nidda River from the Nidda Cycle Path

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Nidda cycle path stretches from the source of the Nidda in the Vogelsberg to the mouth in Frankfurt-Höchst, where it merges into the Frankfurt green belt. Here at the Vilbeler Langwiesen you have a beautiful view of the river.

View of Feldberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

Many people confuse the Feldberg summit with the Winterstein. But the Winterstein is just a tower, while the Feldberg is more of a structure.

It's a very beautiful, secluded spot. The Nidder estuary is a great place to rest.

Bird's Nest

Highlight • Rest Area

Next to the Nidda cycle path, a shallow water pond with variable humidity was created that serves as a spawning ground for tree frogs and green toads. You can easily observe the goings-on there from the Vogelnest rest area.

Niddaknie

Highlight • River

At the so-called Nidda knee you can take a look at the exemplary Nidda renaturation. After just a short time, the natural habitat here began to decline. Many species of fish and even kingfishers, beavers and the European pond turtle have made their home there again.
