Well-maintained outdoor area, barbecue areas and solid wood seating sets. Overnight stays/camping are possible here by prior arrangement. A tavern is also operated on Sundays and public holidays. A stop here is recommended. The Swabian Albverein will be pleased about your visit.

The Juxkopfturm in Spiegelberg is a 22-meter-high observation tower that sits on the Juxkopf (533 m above sea level). It was built in 1932 by the Swabian Alb Association from wood on a concrete base and offers excellent panoramic views. From the platform you can overlook the valleys of the Neckar, Rems and Jagst, as well as see the Swabian Alb and the Northern Black Forest. The tower is open on Sundays and public holidays from the beginning of April to the end of October. When the weather is nice, it is a popular place for hikers and day trippers who want to enjoy the breathtaking view.

Here you can unwind and enjoy the fresh air of the Swabian-Franconian Forest to the fullest. With 16 cozy beds, the hut is the ideal retreat, whether you've spent the day exploring the forest or just want to put your feet up. And best of all: there's a barbecue area and a playground! Ideal for daredevil grill masters and little adventurers who want to let off some energy. From the beginning of April to the end of October, the hut is open to anyone who wants to have a good time in nature. So, grab your hiking gear, get ready for a bit of "jux" and head off to the mountains!
