Berggasthof Mooshütte, Mountain inn in Bavarian Forest, Germany
Berggasthof Mooshütte is a mountain inn set in the Bavarian Forest at elevation, surrounded by thick woodland with views across forested valleys. The building is nestled among hiking trails that pass through the area, making it a natural stop for people walking the forest paths.
The area was cleared in the 17th century for a glassworks operation, and lodging was built soon after to serve travelers and workers. The site grew over time as a stopping point in this remote forest region.
The restaurant focuses on regional Bavarian cooking, working with nearby producers to bring local flavors to the table. Visitors taste how people in this forest area have eaten and cooked for generations.
The inn is best reached on foot via hiking trails that wind through the forest. Wear sturdy shoes, especially if the forest ground is wet or muddy from recent rain.
In September 1931, a planned robbery at the inn was prevented when the owner's Saint Bernard dog assisted police in apprehending the perpetrators.
