    Hiking

    You can start many great hikes at the “white stone” car park. On the tower there is a real view of the Eifel 🥰Around the tower there is a great playground, soccer field and climbing wall. An excursion that is worthwhile

    Hiking

    In 1973, for the first time, a lookout tower was erected in the leisure park Weißer Stein. The tower, built entirely of wood at that time, had to be demolished in 2012 due to ailing outer columns.

    At the end of 2014, the new lookout tower with a ridge height of 30 meters was built. The "Eifel view" with information on the viewing directions already installed on the old tower has also been installed on the top viewing platform, which can be reached via 147 steps.

    Hiking

    One of the highest points in the Eifel near the Belgian border with refreshments, ski lift and camper parking for a small fee. Since we were here at the time of Corona, unfortunately everything was closed. Although there was a lot of snow. We could still enjoy the great view!
