What you can expect

We offer this unique guided tour every year from May 1 to October 3 on every Wednesday, Sunday, and holiday. Because only on these days can you experience a very special spectacle. Hundreds of visitors then watch with excitement as the water moves through historic pipes in the park ensemble and emerges at picturesque stations such as the cascades in front of the Hercules statue, the Steinhöfer Waterfall, the Devil's Bridge, and the aqueduct. During our guided tour, you will receive exclusive background information and, of course, be there in time for the finale of the fountains, when a jet of water over 50 meters high rises into the sky.

Note: The water features can only be experienced on foot, as they are located within the listed mountain park. Unfortunately, the paths are not suitable for people with walking difficulties or wheelchair users. Please note that there is no stair railing at the Baroque cascade system. We strongly recommend sturdy footwear for participation in this guided tour. You should be able to walk with sure-footedness and have a certain level of physical fitness to take part in the guided tour of the water features. Guests with dogs cannot, unfortunately, participate in this guided tour – especially for the animal's well-being.

We recommend traveling by public transportation. If you are coming by car, you can find more information here: https://www.kassel.de/buerger/kunst_und_kultur/parks_und_gaerten/wilhelmshoehe/anreise/parken-am-bergpark-wilhelmshoehe.php
