Lookout tower and shelter on Kleb

Highlight • Viewpoint

Barbecue hut with observation tower, which unfortunately is not high enough to allow a view of the valley, as long as the trees are leafy. Far-sightedness is possible. No dizziness due to lack of height and closed construction.

Shelter at the Schloßweiher with a fire pit

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Hut

Hi.
The fireplace, shelter, tables and benches are built by the city.
You don't need a permit to use the fireplace.
If you weren't allowed to use them, the city would have eliminated them long ago.

Great that you can also barbecue here, my tip would be to bring some wood beforehand, then it's directly available on the tour, it's accessible by car
