Crowning a mountain in stunning wilderness, surrounded by walking paths, quaint villages and ancient castles and churches, it's a beautiful place.
Welcomed by the owner, Torsten, who grew up here and whose family ran it before him. As a solo traveller, he went out of his way to make me welcome, even walking down into a local village with me for dinner one night.
If you want German culture, landscape, food and hospitality, stay here.

Too expensive
A plate of lentil soup with Kassler for almost 13 euros and the Kassler you had to look for, so for my feeling definitely too expensive.
I had already written this review on Google. There it was deleted for alleged defamation.
I don't know what's supposed to be defamatory about normal criticism?
In any case, you can get rid of bad reviews.

Unfriendly 2.0
I come from the catering industry myself. But this unkindness is not possible for me at all. But it seems things are still going too well.
The general location is certainly the best in the Zittau Mountains. But then please with a friendly staff.

UNFRIENDLY and totally OVERPRICED prices
Four of us went to the Hochwaldbaude today. When ordering, there were unfriendly instructions. Since a lentil soup costs €13.50 and a drink costs over €5, that was disproportionate. I advise everyone to use the Turmbaude, which is 200 m away, for half the price and with friendly staff.

A place for great views and a bite to eat.
Took the roadtrain up to the top as I have walking problems. Sadly the small eaterie by the tower was closed so went to the larger one. Noting a tower fee of €1.50.
Views were great despite the low cloud and eventually lifted. Noted the extensive restoration work and will come back to see progress. Steps are a bit wonky but it's being worked on.
Menu displayed outside by the door so this gives you the prices upfront so you don't have a surprise when the bill comes.
Went in and made our way to a the table.
Were given menus by the waiter (who seems to have been given a hard time by other reviewers). Yes, a little curt but efficient (eventually made him smile with the appearance of our small toy sheep, Mini-Me.
(this is not the top of the Zugspitz with a massive eaterie and a shed load of staff and a bigger budget).
He took our drink order, a large and a small beer and no, this wasn't watered down as stated by other reviewers. UK prices would have charged more than the equivalent of €5 for a 0.5l.
Ordered the streudel that came with cream and ice cream and very nice too, served warm. Yes, probably put in a microwave but in a place like this I appreciate that having an oven on all day isn't practical. Partner ordered the camembert and it looked and tasted great.
Yes the prices are high but this place is off the beaten track and getting supplies up there can't be easy. We've come through Covid, inflation etc. If the reviewers are that upset why didn't they eat in Hain or Oybin where the prices are about the same (that's when their eateries are open).
This place doesn't claim to be something it isn't.
If your legs work and want to walk for a great view, go. Please remember to support the smaller businesses.
