Tips

Hiking

These stones can be found directly on the ridge path and at the view of the Great Pond. Only at second glance and after reading the information board do you realise that there used to be a hut here. Today, building a building in this exposed location would probably be impossible; the safety requirements would exceed any budget. Hats off to our ancestors.
