This cozy inn is located in the small village of Schanze, right next to the Kyrill Trail. You can stay overnight here during your hike, or simply take a break to recharge. The beer garden opposite the inn is a particularly good place to do this. You won't find much traffic here: the road practically ends here. We're closed on Mondays, but our guests are of course offered something to eat.
