    The refuge stands on the open plateau, which used to be a Celtic hilltop settlement and was protected by a rampart on the back ridge.

      Beautifully situated refuge on the edge of the forest with a beautiful view over the heights of the Rhine Valley.

        One of many very beautiful protection and rest huts on the RheinBurgenWeg. In most cases there are not enough rest areas and shelters. At this stage 9 you can hardly save.

          A beautiful refuge just before the last climb to the Keltenwall.
