The Bühl is sort of the "local mountain of Birkendorf", but more of a hill. Nevertheless, you have a wonderful view of the Hotzenwald, the High Rhine and Switzerland, with luck you can even see the Swiss Alps. To get to the "summit" you have to turn onto a small path that leads up through pine trees to the refuge. There is also a sunbed on the way to relax and enjoy. If you are lucky enough to see the Swiss Alps, an orientation table and a telescope will help you to name the peaks. You don't have to walk far from Birkendorf to get here, approx. 1/2 to 3/4 hours

Certainly interesting as a starting point for a hike and the view is not bad either. However, an extra detour is not worthwhile, as the Siblinger Höhe is located on a heavily trafficked road that is not safe for hikers
