ブライアルフの絶景の山頂・トップ3

Great location, definitely worth a visit. If you look closely at the stone you can still see parts of the writing that was once there. Unfortunately the writing is almost illegible due to shrapnel etc.

Der Schwarzer Mann is a statue that stands at the height of the Eiffel. And is located in the winter sports area of the Eiffel nice confirmation area for walking, with many attractions, such as a Dwarf boulder and remains of an old bunker

The name Black Man has nothing to do with the children's frightening figure The Black Man, but with the black faces of the miners when mining lead ore in the mines of Bleialf. The summit used to be called "Kerschgeroth", which probably derives from the clearing of the heavily forested area. Source: Wikipedia

"The Black Man is 697.3 meters high. And of course it has nothing to do with the children's song - oh what! The Internet knows: The Black Man is the highest peak in the Schneifel and the third highest mountain in the Eifel (after the Hohe Acht and the Erresberg) and is considered an Eldorado for winter sports enthusiasts and hikers seven kilometers north-west of Prüm not far from the Belgian border in the Hohes Venn nature park located, but which covers a larger area, but comes from the word "Schneise" and designates the mountain range to which the black man also belongs." https://susanne-wingels.de/tag/forstmeisterjansenstein

"To the right of the hiking trail, on the back of the hill bordering the parking lot, a staircase leads up to a platform on which there is a wooden fellow: the black man with a hat, a long beard and a walking stick. Up here I find out what makes the area special and where the strange name comes from: Until the 19th century, the 15-kilometer-long ridge was known as "Kerschtgesroth", which means "forest clearing" and goes back to the Celtic tribe of Karusker/Cäroser, who lived here The name may have come from the black faces of the miners or charcoal burners who lived and worked in the area - or perhaps from the wooden scaffolding made of tree trunks that Napoleonic surveyors placed in the landscape as landmarks and that from a distance may have looked like dark figures ." https://susanne-wingels.de/tag/forstmeisterjansenstein

Here, skiers and snowboarders are transported to the starting point with two tow lifts. From there, two blue-marked descents lead back down. The Schwarzer Mann ski area offers a total of 1.5 km of slopes for beginners, families and advanced skiers. www.skigebiete-test.de

In addition to Hellenthal-Udenbreth, one of the most famous winter sports areas in the Eifel. The Schwarzer Mann ski area is about 14 km northwest of Prüm in the Eifel. On the Schwarzen Mann ridge (697 meters peak) it offers an easy and a medium-difficulty downhill slope for relaxed skiing and snowboarding. An alternative to skiing is the natural toboggan run with its own toboggan lift. For children, the Schwarzer Mann winter sports center not only offers the two ski slopes, but also its own mini children's toboggan run. For cross-country skiers there are around ten kilometers of groomed cross-country trails. And hikers can look forward to around five kilometers of signposted winter hiking trails in the Schwarzen Mann winter sports area. To stop off, the Blockhaus Schwarzer Mann offers Eifel specialties, home-style cooking, coffee and cake and more. Source: https://www.skiresort.de/skigebiet/schwarzer-mann-pruem/
