레흐‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산 정상

Hikers are welcome guests at the Krausberghütte, located on the mountain of the same name above Dernau, just a stone's throw from the Krausberg Tower (if interested, see https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/72123). It is run by the local chapter of the Eifel Association – a volunteer organization. Those planning a stop here should check the opening hours beforehand.

A striking point in the Ahreifel is undoubtedly the Krausberg above Dernau. It is not only known for a hut run by the local branch of the Eifel Association, but also for the Krausberg Tower.

The Legend the legend, in which the devil built the castle here, high in the sky, in defiance of God, based on this observation of the rocks, which had already been made in the past by people with a natural acumen. (...) This time, as always, it did not work out well for the devil: his half-finished castle was shattered by one blow of the hand of God, and the rock really gives the impression of a Cyclopean castle ruin.

The largest contiguous quartzite block in Europe, Teufelsley, is located four kilometres from Dümpelfeld.

Great climbing rock.

Really alpine trail with easier climbing sections, not always very stable rock and sometimes finding the way requires a bit of intuition.

The path is tough, but so is the view. The Landskrone is also visible from afar, for orientation. Only on New Year's Eve should you think twice whether you want to go here... because many people have the idea, fireworks are sometimes shot across, and if something happens then it could take a while for help to arrive (fortunately that didn't happen to us back then).

For the quartzite blocks see e.g. B. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teufelsley_(Rhineland-Palatinate) The largest quartzite block in Europe is 80 meters long and 18 meters high. Quartzite sandstone, the oldest Eifel rock, was formed around 400 million years ago. At that time the region was on the equator, and a Devon Sea covered the land. And its deposits formed rock formations like this over the course of the tides. Quartzite itself is barren, but soil collects in its cracks, greening the stone. The red inclusions come from iron components. The word Ley means rock. According to legend, the devil once wanted to build a castle here all the way to heaven - but a single push from God was enough to thwart his blasphemous plan.
