アルホルツェンの山小屋＆キャビン・トップ20

The Fohlenplackener Hut is a popular destination for hikers, nature lovers, and cyclists. At an elevation of approximately 440 meters, it offers wonderful views over the vast forests of the Solling region and invites you to take a relaxing break amidst untouched nature. The hut is located on the Fohlenplacken Meadow, a historic clearing that likely got its name from the foals that once grazed there. Today, it is an important point in the Solling-Vogler Nature Park's network of hiking trails. The Hochsolling Circular Trail, which passes directly by the Fohlenplackener Hut, is particularly popular. The refuge itself is quaint and cozy—a classic example of the region's rustic architecture. It serves hikers as shelter from the elements, a rest stop, and a meeting place. There's also a barbecue and picnic area nearby, ideal for groups and families.

The idea for the hut was born in 1984. After a village festival on the grounds of the former Noack sawmill, the surplus was to be used for a worthy purpose. The majority opted for accommodation for communal gatherings in a suitable public space. After negotiations with Neuhausen's mayor, Friedrich Schwerdtfeger, forestry director Dr. Förster, and district manager Langer, the hut was inaugurated in 1986. The front, open but sheltered area is equipped with seating and is open to the public. The approximately 5x5m interior serves as the village community room for the Fohlenplackener community.

An afternoon hike in the dark!
