A cute little shelter hidden by the forest. Outside there are 2 small benches. We ate our vespers here and enjoyed the sight of the Helbetal!

Take a break. You can do it really well here. You can find shelter here even in a short rain shower.

A rest and a detour to the Steinerne Jungfrau, which is about 300 meters steeply uphill, are ideal here. 👍

The actual Devil's Pulpit is at the top of the mountain. The Devil's Mask is also located there! 😱 Update: Helbing's little house is currently being rebuilt as a great resting and overnight stop (see photo). 👍👍👍
