    A beautiful statue, next to benches and a table for a picnic.

      Nice, small rest area with an information board and a sandstone sculpture of the “white lady”.
      This special sculpture is intended to keep the memory of an old legend alive. In addition to the "Miss" with his curly hair, a chest (with the treasure), a toad (which was not kissed) and a moon (for the nights) are also carved into the sculpture. All three play an important role in the legend.

        In the forest between Hochspeyer and Enkenbach, the woman's sculpture is reminiscent of an old legend according to which three journeymen dreamed that a treasure was supposed to be buried in the forest near the thick oak. So they went there and started digging. They found a chest and were about to open it when a woman appeared and gave them three conditions before they were allowed to open the chest. The next night they were supposed to kiss a toad, the second night a poodle with glowing eyes, and the third night the white lady again. Then they would get the treasure. But already in the first night she lost her courage with the toad and the treasure in the chest sank into the earth and was never seen again.
