The gorge of the Firnsbach with its basalt flutes opens into the hilly basalt dome landscape. Once you have climbed Schauenburg Castle, you can feel like a count and look out over your lands at the fairy-tale resting place Landschaftsthrone. The fairy-tale theme continues with a detour to the Schauenburg Fairy Tale Watch or a relaxing hike in the fairy-tale forests around Falkenstein Castle and Altenburg Castle. Meadow valleys lead to Bad Emstal with its spa gardens and rose garden.
