Warning about a naked man! When we were on the Westweg and sleeping around the barbecue area in front of the hut, we encountered a completely naked, confused man there at 6:00. He came to us at the barbecue area, said a few incomprehensible words and then went back in the direction he had come from. We were very frightened. According to a jogger who passed by the hut a few minutes later, the naked man often runs around this area and is a "harmless weirdo".

A great view over Basel and, in good weather, as far as the Swiss Jura. In addition to the covered hut, there are other places to sit and a fireplace.
