ヴィルシュヴァイラーのおすすめランニングルート

The dream loop trail leads through the Eva-Loch gorge, initially along narrow paths and over a small footbridge uphill. This water-rich, wooded section feels tranquil, natural, and particularly pristine.

Perfect opportunity to take a break

Just relax

Seven slate steles arranged in a cross shape offer a panoramic view of the municipalities of Allebach-Wirschweiler-Sensweiler-Langweiler-Kempfeld. In view are the "Wildenburg" to the east, the "Hohenfels" and the "Kirschweiler Fortress" to the southeast, the "Ringkopf" as a Celtic ring wall to the south, the "Erbeskopf" (Erbe's Head) at 816 m to the southwest, and the "Idarwald Ski Area" mountain range to the north. The position of the sun creates a form of time measurement via the shadows cast by the steles. The installation is accessible and makes the monumental energy of millions of years old slate, which was once the seabed, tangible, opening up different perspectives and possibilities for perception.

Here you'll find one of the beautiful loungers with a magnificent view of the landscape. A perfect place for a break.

Seven slate steles are arranged in the shape of a cross. From here, you can see the surrounding villages such as Allenbach, Wirschweiler, and Kempfeld. In various directions, you can spot special landmarks such as Wildenburg Castle, Erbeskopf (the highest mountain in Rhineland-Palatinate), and old fortresses. The shadows cast by the steles change with the sun, thus indicating the time – similar to a sundial. The steles are made of very old slate, which was once the seabed. You can walk among them, touch them, and experience the power and history of the stone.

As a "waymarker" and "time object," the installation "Suntime between the Forests" consists of a base stone for the night, a second large stone for the day, and numerous smaller, layered stones for the hours. By drilling holes in the large stone, the cardinal directions can be identified in relation to the position of the sun, and the shadow conveys the time of day. In the field of view, from northeast to southwest, are the Wildenburg, Hohenfels, Kirschweiler Fortress, Ringskopf, and Pfannenfelskopf. Three seating stones symbolize "Past, Present, Future" and are intended to invite visitors to linger. A time object made of 12 tons of 400-million-year-old quartzite rock was installed at the square. The "petrified" marine sediments are now mined in the Allenbach quarry of Steinwerk Allenbach GmbH & Co. KG (Wirschweiler district) and processed into stone and gravel. The sculpture is a "signpost" found in various forms throughout the world, often in distinctive or magical locations and frequently made of layered stones.
