Hohe Leite Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

This cute refuge, which you can walk through, is located directly on the hiking trail. There is an information board on the Hohe Leite at the hut. Next to it is a bench. This place is good for a rest.

The hang-gliders start down here in the Saale valley. If you're lucky, you can sit on the bench and watch the starts. Lovely view!
