The Hilschweiher is an idyllic spot in the Edenkoben valley.

The Hilschweiher is an idyllic spot in the Edenkoben valley. A short walk takes you from the parking lot on the road to this small body of water, which is rich in fish. A forest kiosk with covered seating offers both inexpensive meals and refreshing drinks, inviting you to relax. It is a rustic destination for the whole family, as it offers various possibilities depending on your interests. You can row a boat on the lake and enjoy this magical place from the water. If you are not so fond of the wet element, you can follow a water trail from there and get to the Hilsch water spring. From there, the water ripples over small waterfalls down to the lake. The Hilsch waterfalls were captured in 1883 and renovated in 1951 by the city of Edenkoben. Tel.:(06323) 2973
