The ER 4 extends the loop of the ER 3 with a trip to the traditional spa town Bad WildungenFrom Edertal Hemfurth, the ER 4 runs along the Eder Cycle Route and the Ederauen Adventure Trail. At Wellen, the ER 4 leaves the Eder Valley and follows the gently rising Wilde Valley. Mountain peaks and valleys characterize the lovely landscape. Treasures of the flora grow on the rocky ground of steep valley slopes. Carbonated mineral springs emerge into the daylight. They are home to Europe's largest spa park and the spa operations of Bad Wildungen Made world famous. Designed in the English style well over 100 years ago, the park delights visitors with its colorful blooms, healing springs, water features, and shady avenues that lead past bandstands and the popular Kurpark Cafe to the imposing promenade.

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.
