A shelter and fresh spring water invite you to rest. A memorial stone commemorates the 10th Pioneer Battalion. A water intake point was built in 1937/38. It was named Böss-Quelle, probably after the forester Bössenroth who worked here.

Beautiful pond area with benches for resting.

Hikers can get fresh spring water from the Bösquelle. The water flows from the source through the Fuchsbachtal water catchment area north to the valley.

If you are on the cycle path from Großmunzel to Ostermunzel, you will come to an impressive natural monument, the Ostermunzel boulder. The boulder lies on the "Hohen Saalfeld", as the Mühlenberg (67.5 m) is also called. The rock was discovered by a farmer while plowing in autumn 2013. It has a circumference of around 10 m, is around 2.60 m high and around 3.20 m wide. Its weight is 27.5 tons. The age is estimated between one and two billion years. The boulder, made of gneiss, probably comes from southern Sweden and migrated to its present location during the Saale Ice Age, i.e. around 200,000 to 250,000 years ago. Right next to it, a hiking rest area invites you to linger. From here, the view can wander over the wide Calenberger Lössbörde to the Deister. (Source: information board on site)

You wouldn't expect the big pond to be behind the Annastift.

The hut is unfortunately locked, would be nice in winter if you could go inside.

Just the right place for a break.
