Nice, small resting place, which is especially convenient on hot days: The tree roofs protect you from above and below you can hear the water rushing. Lovely!

Hiking

The Augustin Kanzel is a true insider tip for hikers seeking peace, nature, and a touch of history. Located at an elevation of 575 meters in the Buchberger Leite valley, it not only offers a welcome rest stop on the circular hike near Freyung, but also a magnificent view of the wild Saußbach riverbed. It's a blessing, especially on hot days – the shady treetops and the gentle murmur of the water create an almost meditative atmosphere.
