From this small pavilion with benches, you would certainly have a great view of Wirsberg if someone would trim the trees. In May 2026, you could (unfortunately) only see a lot of green from here.

Here we took our snack break. The table in front of the hut has seen better days. Parts of the tabletop should be replaced.

Bikers are welcome here, as are hikers. They offer good coffee and cake and small snacks. You can bring your own snacks, which is also encouraged, as it is a European-sponsored mountain hut, managed by Goldkronach. It is open, meaning the restaurant is only open on weekends. However, there are seating areas and you can also find shelter.
