There is no view from here - as the signpost to the refuge suggests. But the climb up the stairs alone is quaint and reason enough to make the little detour. The information board probably dates back to the time of the original Taunus nature trail in 1980, because the current nature trail no longer leads up here.

There are far too few of these huts to accommodate just in continuous rain.
