The trail passes this small waterfall and the shelter. Unfortunately, there was trash at the shelter and at this beautiful spot. It's a shame, but that doesn't have to happen! Take your trash with you!

If you leave the water show path at the "Quellen" sign for a few meters, you will come to a small waterfall. It is one of the many tributaries from hillside springs.
