The ER 4 extends the loop of the ER 3 with a trip to the traditional spa town of Bad Wildungen. From Edertal Hemfurth, the ER 4 runs on the Eder cycle path and the Ederauen adventure trail. At the height of waves, the ER 4 leaves the Edertal and follows the gently rising Wildetal. Mountain peaks and valleys characterize the lovely landscape. Treasures of flora grow over the rocky bottom of steep valley slopes. Carbonated mineral springs come to light. They made the largest spa park in Europe and the spa business in Bad Wildungen world famous. Laid out in the English style well over 100 years ago, the park delights with colorful flowers, medicinal springs, water features and its shady avenues, which - past music pavilions and the Kurpark Cafe, a popular meeting point - lead to the imposing foyer.

Our tip
- From Kleinern, as an alternative to the ER 4 through the national park, you can choose the easier route through the Wesebachtal, following the ER 3.
safety instructions
- The cycle paths/routes sometimes alternate between asphalted, gravel and/or field/forest paths. Very rare, even on roads with little traffic. The cycle paths/routes can be combined as desired (including ferries and ships) and are signposted on both sides. There are also a few combined cycle and pedestrian paths.
