Löcherbergwasen Pass
Highlight • Mountain Pass
Good entertainment is always guaranteed. Guests from near and far quickly bond and there is always something to laugh about. I can really only recommend making a detour here.
The very special ambience right at the apex of the road to Peterstal attracts many mountain bikers and hikers here. There are always enough parking spaces to start hiking and cycling tours in the region.

Harkhof — Giant Chairs and Viewpoint
Highlight • Mountain Hut
The management team that provides the service (I don't know anyone inside) is young, friendly, relaxed and in a good mood. Even when there's a massive crowd, there's no rush or unpleasant scenes and you're even receptive to a joke now and then. That's what makes it so refreshingly nice to be here. Just everything. I don't even want to write about the food - the reader can imagine that this is also top notch - typical Black Forest food warm or cold - prepared with a lot of love. And I don't need to mention that you're full afterward.
A new overnight accommodation was also built, with a storage room for bicycles and the like. But I don't know much about it. I think the website or a phone call will provide the necessary information.
It's easy to get to the Harkhof, for example, starting from Lochbergwasen - it's 10 km from there, always slightly uphill but easy to do on foot or by bike. Or you come from the other side, from the Kreuzsattelhütte. The Harkhof is easy to find, the signage is more than sufficient. A real top recommendation.
We would love to come here again at any time.
