Hartenrod

Hartenrod is a district within Wald-Michelbach that mixes open farmland with scattered houses across rolling countryside. Located around 376 meters in elevation, the area remains largely rural with patches of cultivation and residential settlement.

Hartenrod developed as a registered district following the German property survey system that took shape in the 1800s. This administrative division allowed the area to be properly mapped and managed as part of the larger Wald-Michelbach community.

Local residents maintain traditional agricultural practices that shape the community's identity and contribute to regional food production methods.

This district connects to neighboring communities through local roads and remains accessible year-round. Visitors can explore quiet country paths and rural terrain without major traffic.

This district hosts stages of the Rallye Hinterland motorsport event, featuring a 14.5-kilometer course mostly paved. The road surface remains nearly all tarmac, making it suitable for rally competition.
