It is wonderful to stop here after a nice hike, even if the street is in front of the house.

Jakob-Ess-Weg

Highlight • Trail

From here you have a good view of the Lower Pfannenstiel, the mountain panorama and Lake Zurich. Beautiful hiking trails that are also suitable for a Sunday walk.

Popular excursion destination on the Pfannenstiel. In addition to a good restaurant, there is an observation tower, plenty of seating and plenty of sun when the weather is right. A worthwhile destination, even in winter.

Pfannenstiel Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view is fantastic if you have no fear of heights and dare to climb the tower (which, by the way, originally stood on the Bachtel) using the iron stairs.

Barbecue area with a view

Highlight • Rest Area

Nicely located on the forest, it has three or four grill stations there, enough space for many who want to visit the beautiful place at the same time.
