Merkurstüble Restaurant

Highlight • Restaurant

The Merkurstüble is an inn directly at the mountain station of the Merkurbergbahn. From the terrace you have a great view of Baden-Baden. In good weather, there is a lot going on here.

Fee-Schlapper Hut on the Binsenwasen

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Interesting construction, the "Fee-Schlapper-Hut" on the rushes. Nicely located on the pass between Merkur and small Staufenberg and something different than the "usual" shelters.
