The free parking lot is located at the end of Basaltwerkstraße. It is best to park on the left side of the road. We parked on the right side and were in the full summer heat in the afternoon. The small Liegelbergschutzhütte invites you to linger. There you will find brochure material about the Gleichberg area, but also helpful hiking trail signs. We found this place to be very lovingly and richly detailed. It is a joy to look at this place.

The free parking lot is located at the end of Basaltwerkstraße. It is best to park on the left side of the street. Our car was in full sun on the right side in the afternoon. A small shelter invites you to linger at the end of the hike. You can also find brochures there, as well as many helpful hiking trail signs.

Plain but quite generously sized shelter halfway up (530 meters -> summit of the Kl. Gleichberg then 641 meters). So a somewhat larger hiking group could also find space here.
