Beautiful barn on the Einkorn. The quality of the food is very inconsistent. Sometimes great, sometimes so-so.

The picture showing the view into the inlet pipe looks really impressive, but it can only be seen when the lake is empty.

A nice S1 trail, also suitable for mountain bikers with less trail experience. The trail is relatively narrow in places, with small, steep downhill sections, slight rooty patches, and narrow, sloping sections. Of the three trails at Einkorn, I like the Urkorn and Vollkorn trails the best.
