Pfannenstiel Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view is fantastic if you have no fear of heights and dare to climb the tower (which, by the way, originally stood on the Bachtel) using the iron stairs.

Pfannenstiel Forest Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

In front of the forest hut, there's a huge forecourt that can be used for a variety of activities. The nearby fountain is an ideal water source for both two-legged and four-legged friends.

Hochwacht Pfannenstiel — Restaurant and Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Popular excursion destination on the Pfannenstiel. In addition to a good restaurant, there is an observation tower, plenty of seating and plenty of sun when the weather is right. A worthwhile destination, even in winter.
