Lake Edersee in Kellerwald-Edersee Nature Park – a highlight for active people

The 27 km long Edersee lake boasts exceptionally good water quality and offers opportunities for diving, fishing, and sailing. The Edersee is freely accessible from all sides and its small bays invite you to jump into the water. The Kellerwald-Edersee National Park and Waldeck Castle are also worth exploring. Experience the natural gems of the Waldeck-Frankenberg district at Lake Eder during your wellness vacation. In addition to water activities, Lake Eder attracts visitors with its natural diversity, which you can experience during relaxing walks. Since 2011, the beech forest in the Kellerwald-Edersee National Park has even been part of Germany's UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site.

Whether with your partner or a friend, we want to offer you the time and space to relax with all your senses at our wellness hotel. That's why our spa area is a true feel-good zone. Discover the spacious, light-flooded column bath and let your thoughts drift away from the comfortable loungers. Enjoy the soothing heat in one of the saunas: the panorama sauna, Finnish sauna, or steam bath ensure relaxing moments.

Our hotel is equipped with a well-equipped fitness room, which is available to you throughout the day. Right next door is the bathrobe bistro. Wellness also involves the palate, which is why there are many healthy delicacies on offer there. Mobile phones are not allowed in the "Zeitlos" relaxation area, so you can enjoy complete peace and quiet and the sound of birdsong. Our "House of the Middle" is located in the garden, a place of creative inspiration. In yoga classes, Pilates, and other offerings on our course schedule, we accompany you here on your journey to inner balance.

What makes all of our hotel's lounges so special is that 120 years of history lend them a unique charm and character that leaves a lasting impression on visitors. A few years ago, Hotel Diedrich opened one of its centerpieces, the hotel bar "Die gute Stube" (The Good Lounge). This tastefully decorated bar is a place to retreat during the day and a meeting place in the evening. Enjoy regional beers here!

The "Poststube" is a somewhat more intimate place to linger and enjoy yourself, and there is a very special atmosphere in the Kaminstube with its open fireplace. From the terrace, you have a wonderful view of the Hallenberg Valley with its green hills. Ideal for relaxing in the sun with a cozy coffee and a delicious piece of cake.

Restaurant near Lake Eder – Hotel Diedrichs fine cuisine

The heart of every hotel is its kitchen, usually a room whose interior remains hidden from guests. Not so at Hotel Diedrich on Lake Edersee. Guests are always welcome in the "open kitchen" to see how regional and seasonal products are transformed into sophisticated, traditional dishes. Our hotel offers several restaurants, including the "Antons" restaurant, which is dedicated to the hotel's founder.
