The Schwarze Hütte is one of the last hosted huts on the way to the southernmost point of Germany. Originally the hut was used by forestry workers as accommodation, today it is a popular tourist destination. To this point leads a paved road that is easy to cope on foot or on the bike.

Black hut (1225 m, catering)
Hut is located in the Rappenalper valley, in the middle of the valley floor (approx. 1225 m). It is actually a forest hut that was used as accommodation for forest workers and their horses. It belonged to the Free State until 1995, but was then sold.
In addition to the above, it performed a kind of central function for the valley, because this is where the carriage traffic to supply the Alps Rappenalp, Biberalp, Haldenwang, the Hinteren Taufersberg and the Mindelheimer and Rappensee huts ended. From here, the goods were transported on foot or by mules. A lot has changed since the construction of the transport line to the Rappenseehütte.

Ascent and descent:
A tar road (Buchrainer Steig) leads from Birgsau to here. The hut can also be reached on foot from Einödsbach. Here begins a path up to the Rappenseehütte and a few meters further to the Mindelheimer Hütte.
