    An exciting new tourist trail celebrating a New Brighton legend is set to become the resort’s latest visitor attraction – just in time for summer.

    The New Brighton Mermaid Trail, which takes its inspiration from ‘The Black Rock Mermaid’, who was said to have appeared to a local sailor in New Brighton in the 18th century, is to be officially unveiled on Wednesday 7th June.

    The Mermaid Trail is a set of six identical Mermaid statues situated in key locations across New Brighton. They have each been individually decorated, four of them by local schools, one by a community group and one by the local artist who designed and sculpted the statues, Barry Canning-Eaton. Both the design and decoration have been kept a closely guarded secret in the lead up to the unveilings.

        However, the (probably) most famous mermaid in the world is not found here across the English Channel in the United Kingdom, but in the capital of Denmark. In Copenhagen, a statue of a mermaid was erected near the harbor in honor of the Danish poet and storyteller Hans Christian Andersen (1805 to 1875), and has stood there for more than 110 years.

        Of course, the statue there is also marked as a highlight in the komoot system. If you are interested, see => komoot.com/de-de/highlight/73391
