A great place for a break. Cozy benches and a fantastic panoramic view. The Rodt observation tower is just a few meters away.

One of the few highlights on the 14th stage of the Eifelsteig. Very well preserved.

On the 14th stage of the Eifelsteig, the only place to stop for refreshments. Visually perhaps not a hit from the outside, but the inner beer garden is very nice. Open Thursday to Sunday.
