Nidderau

Geographically, Nidderau lies between Frankfurt am Main and Hanau and is surrounded by idyllic countryside. The Spessart, one of the largest contiguous forest areas in Germany, extends to here and invites you to go on extensive hikes. The little river Nidda also meanders through the region and offers picturesque views.

For those interested in culture, there are several highlights in Nidderau: The Alte Schmiede (Old Forge), for example, is a historic building from the 18th century that is now used as an event venue. Concerts, readings or theatre performances are regularly held here.

Another cultural highlight is the Museum Historischer Dorfplatz Windecken with its lovingly restored half-timbered houses from times gone by. Here you can vividly experience what life used to be like.

For those who like to sample culinary specialities, the regional apple wine - also known as Ebbelwoi - and hearty home cooking are a must.

In summer, there are numerous outdoor activities on offer: Hiking through the Spessart or along the Nidda, cycling on well-signposted paths or swimming in the outdoor pool are just a few examples.

Even when the weather is bad, there is plenty to discover in Nidderau: The indoor swimming pool or a game of bowling at the local leisure centre are just two of the many options.

The market square in Nidderau is particularly nice, where you can enjoy an ice cream and watch the hustle and bustle. The castle park with its magnificent baroque castle also invites you to linger.

Annual events include the Windecker Brunnenfest in summer and the Christmas market in December - both always worth a visit!

Overall, Nidderau offers something for everyone as a travel destination: nature lovers, culture enthusiasts and pleasure lovers all get their money's worth here. This travel guide therefore definitely recommends a visit!
