It was built in 1996/97, and anyone who finds it immediately understands why it is so popular. Because this hut is far more than a simple shelter: it is furnished with great attention to detail – almost like a small living room in the forest.

Below the Kornberghütte lies a beautiful juniper heath, in which orchids bloom in spring and gentians (German fringed gentian) and silver thistles bloom in autumn. Please stay on the narrow, well-worn paths (nature conservation)
