クイルンハイムの絶景の山頂・トップ5

Original and fitting for the hill's name

This impressive rock on the Leininger Burgenweg actually looks a bit like a camel's head.

From the barrier, easy-to-drive forest roads branch off in all directions.

Origin of name according to Wikipedia: The mountain was originally called “Spießberg”. It owes its current name to two tragic events. In 1617, “a dead man” was found on the path and the Ganerben forester ordered the body to be buried on the spot. In 1787, below the mountain, in the Langental (Zwingweiler desert), “a dead man was found and is actually still lying on the blaz”. An administration examined the body and determined the cause of death to be a stroke. The dead man was a shepherd named Christoph Vollmar from Carlsberg. Popularly known as this for a long time, Bavarian maps from the period after 1830 definitively identify the mountain as the “Dead Man”.

Nice places for a break and refreshment.

Surprising sight in the Palatinate Forest. Funny staged.

More than 1800 years ago the rock was used by the Romans as a quarry. Stone coffins are said to have been made from its stone, as well as parts of the city wall of the former imperial city of Worms am Rhein. In any case, the Krumholzer Stuhl also served as an important boundary mark for the Ganerben, as evidenced by numerous boundary marks in the stone.

If you know your way around or have a local guide, you have many interesting options from the impact area. E.g. Trail down to Hardenburg, or trail up to the Bismarck Tower.
