Trekkingcamp Alteburg – Pure nature! On our tour, we spent the night with three friends at the Trekkingcamp Alteburg – super well-maintained, beautifully laid out, and wonderfully quiet. A perfect spot to put your feet up after a long hike and enjoy the starry sky. Our video about it: https://youtu.be/B_VgL2QA7fI

The old Teufelsfelshütte can't keep up with the new one, but you can still find shelter here

On December 19, 2020, the hut was made available to the general public. Since then, the interior has been equipped with a sleeping loft of approx. 5 square meters, a 3.5m long solid log table and several benches. The windows and the door keep wind and weather outside. A handcrafted acrylic glass pane is installed in the gable on the south side and allows a view of the sunrise from the sleeping loft. A USB charging station and LED lighting powered by a PV system are available as technical equipment. In the outdoor area, under the roof overhangs, several solid wood seats were installed and also provide visitors with a weatherproof rest area. Since June 2021 we have kept two drawers with mineral water and spritzer in the basement for those who are thirsty. Source: https://hennweiler.de/tourismus/teufelsfelshuette/
