During the first week of October (2019) we passed the black hut twice and both times it was not open, although the signs were "opened" at the signposts.
Therefore, I can not rate the hut in terms of food and drink, but as a milestone, it is always a highlight, because during the long hikes in Stillachtal you also need intermediate destinations ...

After a restorative break at the Black Hut, you can start or continue the following tours from here.
Either up to the Mindelheimer hut, or follow the path in the valley further to the southernmost point of Germany, or the donkey trail up to the Rappenseehütte, or just very relaxed on Asphaltsträßchen back towards Oberstdorf. From Alpe Eschbach or Birgsau then the bus line 7 to Oberstdorf, for 3.90 € that saves a few kilometers dreary asphalt traipse.

On our two big hikes in early October, the hut was unfortunately closed.
