Leisure Activities and the Environment

Bad Wildungen lies in the delightful North-Hessian mountain landscape between Marburg and Kassel. The spa, which is rich in tradition, has a historic old town with picturesque half-timbered houses, a spa promenade with magnificent art nouveau buildings, healing springs and Europe's largest spa gardens.

Its many major cultural, sporting and leisure activities make Bad Wildungen a very special experience; and an ideal setting to escape from the burden of everyday stress. The near  forests, the Kellerwald-Edersee National Park and the popular Lake Edersee (Germany's largest man-made reservoir) invite the visitor to hiking or biking tours and to a variety of day trips. Sights to see on excursions and walking tours can be easily reached on the various therapy trails, sport paths, bike routes and more than 500 km of well signposted walkways.

Determined and young-at-heart albeit conscious of tradition, contemplative yet cosmopolitan, vivacious and nonetheless a natural-loving "oasis of rest and recuperation" set in an idyllic landscape – that's Bad Wildungen.
