A short hike leads past the Leuenfall, which plunges 34 metres into the deep, further along the enchanting deciduous forest leads to the picturesque pilgrimage chapel. Just opposite is the Berggasthaus Ahorn, where you will be spoilt with modern and homemade dishes.

The hosts maintain a close partnership with regional producers and farmers. Therefore the Berggasthaus Ahorn offers a vast variety of local specialities, perfect for gourmet and wine lovers. The Ahorn whisky cask is stored here in a unique way at the foot of the chapel underground.

The perfect place for those seeking a little peace and quiet. Easily accessible in a 30-minute walk from the car park at the Waldgasthaus Lehmen. A detour to our sun terrace or to the Alp-Kiosk lounge is worthwhile in any case.
