Quite a large refuge with several tables, benches and individual chairs. The walls are decorated with pictures and there is also a barbecue area.
Parking is available directly at the hut.

I usually pass here from the Moselhöhenweg when I'm heading towards Engelport (Eselspeedche). Is it nice to take a break? There are also several options to continue the tour (e.g. to Beilstein)
