Tucked away between tall tree trunks stands this open stone hut – simple, sturdy, and perfect for a quiet break in the winter forest. The snow-covered roof and dim light make the place an almost meditative stopover. 💡 Tip 🔥 Ideal for a thermos break: Sit in the hut, sheltered from the wind, and enjoy the view of the snowy clearing – pure forest tranquility.

At the beginning of the tour near Kirschweiler, the view falls upon the former sawmill with its striking tower. Today, it houses a gallery with a diamond symbol – a silent nod to the gemstone tradition of the region around Idar-Oberstein. Especially in winter, the ensemble, with its snow-covered roofs, unfolds its own charm. 💡 Tip ❄️ It's worth taking a look back: From the nearby path, in clear weather, there's a beautiful contrast between the gallery, the hillside forest, and the sky.
