The Hohe List is a former forest service building, built in 1832, is located away from roads and can only be reached on foot via forest paths. The Hohe List is managed and maintained on a voluntary basis by the members of the Palatinate Forest Association Hohe List. A visit is well worth it and the food here is excellent.
