Nice hut with a place to rest. But you can't go into the hut!

The forest lake is undoubtedly magical. But when I visit it, I prefer to take the route from below out of the Preißbachtal. This access road, which is part of the Rabenlay dream loop, is a bit scary to me because of the density of wild boars in the area.
