    Hiking

    "Little" Ternickel and Burgwartsberg. Meadow path + information sign.

    Information:

    The "Little Ternickel" consists of nodular slate from the Elbe Slate Mountains.

    West of Burgwartsberg, the outcrop of the bedrock forms two small hillocks, one of which was used as a ski jump at times. In January 2011, the "Ternickel" natural monument was incorporated into the "Burgwartsberg" landscape conservation area.

    "Großer Ternickel" and Burgwartsberg.

    Information:

    The 215-meter-high "Großer Ternickel" (Great Ternickel) is an outcrop of the 300-million-year-old volcanic rock porphyrite from Potschappel. There was a quarry near the summit of the Großer Ternickel, although no large quantities of rock were extracted.

    West of Burgwartsberg, the outcrop of the bedrock forms two small hills, one of which was used as a ski jump at times. In January 2011, the "Ternickel" natural monument was incorporated into the "Burgwartsberg" landscape conservation area.
