Where you will have a magnificent view of the Edersee. From there the path will get more narrow and harder to climb while we will continue your journey to the “Lindenberg”. The following path will be very overgrown\, and the “Edersee” only appears through the treetops just in a few places. Your last attraction point will be the “HĂŒnselburg” with the remains of medieval ramparts.During the hike you will find a rare flora and a lot of different types of stones. At one point you will also see a landslide\, which will be avoided via a secured path. \n\n\n\nIf you’re looking for a more relaxing day\, there is a small amusement park nearby\, as well as the huge dame we’ll visit. \n\n\n\nAfter last years success of the Offenbach Night\, this year’s theme party will be called the “Frankfurt Night”\, pretty obvious\, right? Frankfurt is Hessian’s largest city and the financial capital of Germany. You can find the stock market\, as well as the European Central Bank. That means there are a lot of people in suits and dresses\, like proper High Society.But be careful: if you find yourself in Frankfurt\, stay away from the Central Station! \n\n\n\nMore pieces of information will come in the future. The plan might slightly change\, there could be different excursions or leisure activities – but we will keep you updated. \n\n\n\nLeisure Activities\n\n\n\nYoga \n\n\n\nDo you want to relax from the pressure of everyday life?
