The Aukammtal facilities are part of the Aukamm spa area in Wiesbaden-Sonnenberg. To the north of the facilities are private sanatoriums and clinics with spacious green areas and the public thermal swimming pool. To the south of the facilities, the Aukammallee runs parallel to the valley. The facilities directly adjoin the rear spa facilities in Rambachtal and thus form a pedestrian green link between the Kurhaus and the spa area, or Wiesbaden-Bierstadt. The border between the Sonnenberg and Bierstadt districts runs through the Aukammtal valley.

The grounds were built in the 1970s and designed with spacious lawns, numerous individual trees, some of which are exotic, the Aukammbach stream with a variety of shrub beds alongside the stream and a wide main path. The Aukamm stream flows through the landscaped area in an artificially created stream. Still water zones alternate with flowing areas and in some places the water splashes over thresholds down towards Rambach. The curved shoreline and varied bank vegetation create the impression of a natural body of water. As there are a few small fish here and there, the kingfisher can also be seen here. Numerous niches with seating directly by the stream or a little higher up on the path invite you to relax in peace.

Further east in the Aukammtal valley is a large natural area and a connected garden area. Since the 1950s, intensive agricultural and horticultural use of the valley floor has declined and nature has reclaimed the area. Since around 1990, the near-natural area has been renaturalized through systematic maintenance measures. The end of the valley to the east is formed by the high embankment of the federal highway 455 and an American sports facility. The Apothecary's Garden is also located nearby.
