This beautiful, small shelter (with table) of the PWV Gleiszellen-Gleishorbach used to be a few meters further up. After major pipeline excavation work, the traces of which can still be seen everywhere here, it was moved about 50 - 100 m. (As of Nov. 2024) This shelter is not to be confused with the large bar hut of the PWV Klingenmünster (big festival on May Day!), which is located very close by a little further down.
