The Rench is 57 km long. It rises near the refuge at an altitude of 915 m. Near Helmlingen, the Rench flows into the Rhine.

Nice, large terrace with comfortable seating. Only the street noise is a bit annoying on weekends 🤷♂️

Unfortunately, the path is closed after a rockfall and won't be repaired. Instead, a bypass has been built. The costs of securing the slope would be enormous.
