Partly steep climb to the Hoher Mechtin on a good footpath through wonderful mixed forest (lots of beech trees!), along the edge also surprisingly many boulders

There is food and drink here, and at the KLP there is also art and culture - a small stage, a lake with a beach club and an overall nice ambience that invites you to linger.
