Attention: dogs are not allowed in the inn, which I find unusual for a hiking restaurant! Maybe it doesn't matter in the summer, but with -5 degrees and stormy winds, of course I didn't want to leave my woof out. So I completely refrained from taking a break. A pity!

A visit to the castle ruins in the Steinwald is always impressive. In 1997 it was restored stone by stone by the Steinwaldia Pullenreuth association. Since then it has shone in new splendor.

The Bayreuther Haus right on the ski slope is worth a visit. Rustic interior, good food and a good refreshment after a hike. When the weather is good you can see far into the distance, in winter you can watch the skiers being taken up the Klausen lift. http://www.bayreutherhaus.de/

The larger-than-life statue of "Mother Earth" is enthroned on a stone pedestal on the south side of the castle ruins. The imposing work of art was commissioned by Eberhard Freiherr von Gemmingen-Hornberg. The bronze statue, which embodies down-to-earthness and the connection between heaven and earth, was created by the sculptor Engelbert Süss from Pfreimd.
