    Beautiful chapel in the middle of the forest at a crossroads. A nice place to come to terms with yourself. Right next to the chapel, a bench invites you to relax and rest.

      In 1985, the Restecker chapel was rebuilt by the Kainzenbauer after being completely destroyed in the bombing raid on April 25, 1945. Earlier, it should have haunted this place, many hikers have shunned the place according to traditions. It is said that when you crossed the intersection, an invisible wall suddenly blocked your way. Only when a chapel was built at this point, the spook suddenly stopped and it was peace and quiet. So today you can take a break here and continue unhindered.

        A bit tedious in winter, but the "legendary" hike that goes past here is also worth it.
