The Finnhüttenbauweise is clearly the favored one on this Rennsteig section. The hiker is all the more astonished when he comes across a massive sandstone building here.
Inside you have 2.5x3.5m space, and 2 people can enjoy the privilege of sitting on comfortably wide bunk beds. The second class on the floor offers space for 3.

Downside: there is a fireplace on the porch. So far so pleasant, but the smoke emanating from this is often drawn into the interior. The result is black walls and a pungent smell. Unfortunately.

Outside you will find a picnic area with tables and benches that was redesigned in 2013. A little around the corner there is a view towards Oberschönau and the mountains in the south.

Wonderful refuge to rest. This is where the paths from Unter- and Oberschönau as well as from the Schmalwassertalsperre and Falkenstein meet the Rennsteig. A tree and a memorial stone standing nearby remind us of the South Thuringian mountaineer Günther Jung, who fell in 2004 while descending from Nanga Parbat.
