Very nice area, but unfortunately not (more) used. Seats, bar tables, a bar and the whole protected around a fire! And the owl, or the wild boars sawn from trunks, are also very beautiful.

This "weather shelter" doesn't deserve its name at the moment. Roof broken, only a single board left as a shaky seat and unfortunately "hikers" didn't take their rubbish with them but spread it in and around the house. A pity. Otherwise a great place to decide how to continue running or driving.

The large refuge invites you to take a break - ideal when the weather is not so nice.

Beautiful forest path from the Grinse in the direction of Rasdorf/ Leipnitzsee/ Wandlitz. Unfortunately, new, coarse gravel has been laid here, so it's not so great to ride with narrower tires.
