Good shelter for showers. From here, you can hike to Peilstein, Wackelstein, Riedelhöhe, and Geißeck. You can also descend to Hirschling.

My personal highlight, discovered purely by chance in the forest. My praise to the creator of this beautiful spot on earth. Thank you for providing spring water and chilled drinks. Treat this place with respect, keep it clean and we probably don't need to talk about the honesty of nature lovers. Thank you

Protected us from the rain shower during a smaller round. There is also a table inside. It is therefore perfect for a rest.
