From the Firnsbachklamm gorge up to Schauenburg Castle with a magnificent view into the Chattengau region as well as to the west and the destinations Weidelsburg Castle and Kellerwald Edersee Nature Park. Fairytale forests and tranquil landscapes make this stage a recreation for all the senses.

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.
