    The legend of the Devil's Stairway

     Once a stranger came to the Schwarzatal and freed a beautiful fisher girl. The answer had already been given, when the bride at the last moment realized that she had never engaged anyone else but the devil. With horror she fled up the steep hill, but the devil tore stones from the rock and built a huge staircase. At the seventh stage, he caught up with the fugitive and wanted to seize her, but suddenly a violent thunderstorm exploded, a bolt of lightning tore the pursuer in the depths, and the girl was able to save herself for blast disks.

     At the said seventh stage is now the Devil Steps hut.

      Another great view into the Schwarzatal you get on the Teufelstreppe.

        Great view and a small hut to rest.
