Small, lovingly designed shelter. Particularly striking is the hand-painted saying on the gable: "Sett di dol, verpust di mol" - Low German for roughly: Sit down and take a break. A nice little resting place with its own character.

The place is rotten, the hut smells burnt, and it's completely neglected. What am I supposed to do with a table in the middle that's 2 meters from the bench? I'll keep going 🙄

This rest area is new to me on 8/24/24 and that's why I've included it on the Komoot route.
