Nice hut that has saved my wet bottom several times. It is always clean and you can always take a break here and let your gaze wander over the Elbe foreland.

Whether you're riding in the rain or sunshine, a shelter is a great way to take a short break. You never know when you'll need a roof over your head. Anything is better than standing under a tree.
