Simple hut located at a crossroads with a good view of nearby Haslach. The name has nothing to do with the German Red Cross. The explanation is on an information board next to the hut.

Covered rest area with a view of the small town of Mühlenbach. A table with a large corner bench invites you to have a snack and linger for a while. We were happy to take advantage of this.

Immediately after descending from the Urenkopf, you pass the "Three Holy Fountains." First, however, you see the Rudolfus Chapel. Right next to it, water flows through the fountains. Steps lead through the sloping terrain.

A memorial from the dark era of the Nazi regime. Numerous informative display panels provide insight and time for reflection.
