The Remischen (pronounced: Remiesje) is a common, simple, slightly conical glass used along the Nahe river. It corresponds to half a Schoppen, i.e. 0.2 liters. Over generations, the Remischen has established itself as a common serving measure along the Nahe. The origin of the name remains a mystery to this day. The following variants can be found: Remise (French) for shed (colloquially Schopp), where wine was served in these half-Schoppen glasses at the time. Remi-sensi-demi (French) for half a Schoppen, because the occupiers at the time (late 18th/early 19th century) (the French) found a whole Schoppen too much.

The place is perfect for a rest - even for larger hiking groups, as there are also plenty of benches and tables :-)

From here to the street leading to Niederthäler Hof, there are 240 steps. But they're absolutely worth it.

A very beautiful spot after the climb out of the valley. We had a leisurely snack here today. Keep your eyes peeled for the rare plants that grow here. I learned about the dittany here and found it along the way. There's an informative video about the dittany on YouTube: Dittany: This plant can self-ignite - The burning bush

The hut invites you to take a short rest. The information board provides a wealth of information about the plants in the Felsenberg nature reserve. Then, as you continue on your way, keep your eyes open for something else. I also found a dittany.
