With us you will find the best excursion destinations in Hesse! The wildlife park is the attraction at Edersee. Beautifully situated, it is a pleasure to observe local wild animals in their extensive enclosures. The lake and Waldeck Castle become a stage when the eagle circles majestically above your heads during the bird of prey flight show. The treetop path, climbing forest and the summer toboggan run promise action-packed experiences.

A tour on the passenger ship is pure pleasure, while the original mountain railway connects the waterfront with the town of Waldeck and the castle. In addition to the “Great House”, where everything is actually upside down, families have fun trying to get the trolley going. You're supposed to wander around in the corn maze, which you can't do on a guided tour through the old towns of Bad Wildungen or Fritzlar. Insider tip: In the mine of the Snow White village of Bergfreiheit near Bad Wildungen you can imagine how the seven dwarves worked. That's not all, take a look.

The possibilities in the Ederse region are diverse!

The first time we went to Edersee for a day trip. It was a very warm day and the kids really wanted to do something by the water, so we rented a pedal boat. We then sailed across the lake and had a lot of fun. In the afternoon we went along the children's hiking trail to the treetop path and into the wildlife park. The children had so much fun that we spent a week in the region the following year. We've been here a few times now and still always discover something new. Adventure Golf in Hemfurth has been very popular since last year.

"Whether it's a family hiking trail, action on the summer toboggan run or riding a flamingo pedal boat on the lake - the Edersee region offers a lot of interesting things for families to discover."
