The summit of the Waxeneck is a little off the >route to the Waxeneck Haus. You should leave your bike behind for the last part and go up on foot. At the top you have a great view of the area around Berndorf. But be careful, the blackberry bushes are very clingy.

The drinks hut is a good idea; we always use it when the shelter is closed.
