Nice place to take a short rest (if needed going up) also a good lookout point in the mostly forest trail up to the Etzel Kulm

Very nice viewing point that is relatively easy to reach on foot or by MTB. The restaurant is large, with a sunny terrace, self-service.

St. Meinrad Boundary Marker

Highlight • Monument

.... The legend goes on to say that two crooks visited Meinrad on January 21, 861. Their intentions were not good, but even though Meinrad saw through them, he was hospitable. But when he let them know that he knew what they were doing, they killed him.

The crooks fled. According to tradition, Meinrad raised two tame ravens who followed the murderers to Zurich. There the villains were recognized and executed. The two ravens also attracted attention, which is also the reason why they adorn the Hermitage coat of arms today.
