On the beautifully busy climb to the Jungholz Eiffel Tower (Hochrhein radio mast) you pass a meadow with a farm. Here, after a long left turn, you have a great view back to the Rhine.

A popular beautiful place in the forest. Here wild boars, fallow deer, sika and red deer can be observed and fed with corn. Not far away there is also a barefoot path, a mountain lake with a restaurant, pedal boats and a climbing park. But be careful, it is often overcrowded on weekends. If there are no more parking spaces available, there may still be parking spaces at the mountain lake above the game reserve.
