Hornisgrinde Tower

Highlight • Monument

Busy on weekends. If you really want to enjoy the peace and beauty of the high moor, as well as the all-round view, you should make the ascent early in the morning or late in the evening.

Darmstädter Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Always delicious food and drinks. There is plenty of outdoor seating around the hut. The hut is located directly on the Westweg and is therefore also a good stopover with overnight accommodation.

You wind your way up 90 steel steps to the platform of the steel observation tower. The open iron railing offers a stunning view of the Black Forest, the Rhine Valley, and, in good weather, the Vosges Mountains opposite.

Great views down to Ottenhöfen. A relatively new mountain hut offers plenty of space and is a great place to stop for a snack.

The view from the terrace of the panorama hut is really beautiful. Otherwise, the panorama hut disappointed me on today's hike during the week. After 15 minutes of waiting there was still no service staff to be seen (with 4 guests in total) - even going into the hut and calling for the service staff did not help. A look at the internet reviews of the hut shows me that this is not an isolated case.

In the cozy, managed hiking hut on the sunny side of the Murg Valley you can enjoy the hut atmosphere in the Black Forest. From the terrace of the hut you have a unique view of the Murgtal. A nice way to linger. However, you should arrive early as the hut is very popular and fills up quickly. More information: www.sackmanns-wanderhotel-loewen.de/de/panorama-huette

Wonderful view, like a short vacation. Drinking a beer here and looking over the Black Forest valleys and Schwarzenbach is a dream. Delicious food at moderate prices. Tarte flambée with spicy cheese - delicious.
