A detour here is definitely worth it! The view is terrific. There is a bench directly behind the hut with a view of the dam. Simply wonderful! Let your mind wander!

This resting place is about 100 meters from the path and leads on a narrow path to the refuge. From here you have a really wonderful view of the Leibis Dam. There is also a nice seat in front of the hut. But please drive slowly, it is not cordoned off and goes down steeply.

Lichte Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Where there is now water in the dam, the town of Leibis was and had to give way to the construction of the wall. It was rebuilt somewhere else and is now called New Leibis.

After 5 days in the big city, I was drawn to nature today: Dam, Fröbelturm and Kuppe.

Then another walk to the top with @Anja, after a long vacation break we had a lot to talk about.
