The Burgberghütte is located above Ulfen at 360m above sea level. NHN. A summit cross was erected right next to it. For stamp collectors there is a stamp box in the hut for a hiking stamp from the P20 Ulfener Karst.

The Burgberghütte is located above Ulfen at 360m above sea level. NHN. Lovingly prepared and maintained, it offers protection from wind and weather, and you also have a wonderful view of the country from inside. All of this is complemented by a hut book for entries and a stamp for hiking stamp books. Perfect!
