It's simply beautiful. Unfortunately, you can't go in. It's privately owned

A very beautiful spot in the middle of the forest. The shelter with its bench is lovingly decorated. You can write in a little book if you want to. It's also very quiet here. Great.

From the "Forsthaus" inn, you have a beautiful view over the Great Bishop's Pond (Dechsendorfer Weiher), and in good weather, you can even enjoy a beautiful sunset over the pond. In summer, the "Forsthaus" hosts wonderful events on Thursdays with live music and, for example, "barbecue, all you can eat," etc.
