The Rehbrunnel viewpoint, nestled in the Vosges forests, offers a magnificent panorama of the surrounding valleys and mountains. From this point, the view extends over dense forests, steep ridges, and on a clear day, you can admire the distant landscapes that stretch as far as the eye can see.

A brand-new wooden shelter. Inside, there's a stove and three seating areas. There's barely enough room for a bivouac on the floor, as the tables are attached to the ground and there's little space between the benches. However, you could still spread out a bit. I also managed to set up my single-person inner tent right next to the door.

There's a well with drinking water 150 meters below the hut! It's a perfect spot for a night, and the view from this rocky, spiritual spot down into the valley toward Thann is outstanding!
