Beautiful refuge with a large meadow and barbecue. At the edge of the meadow is a memorial stone, which is reminiscent of the witch hunt in the Ahr valley ...

View from Schrock

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of the most beautiful vantage points in the Ahr valley. Since the ascent is quite steep and the hut is a bit off the beaten path, it is not overcrowded ...

The Teufelsley offers a fantastic panoramic view over the Ahr valley and the Siebengebirge. You can let your eyes wander over the nature reserve Langfigtal and the villages Altenahr and Mayschoss ...
The cross was also modernized and should now be able to defy many storms ...

The last few meters to the summit are almost alpine in character and you should not only have sturdy shoes but also have both hands free. And the summit is also a bit wider ...

Devil's Hole

Highlight • Natural Monument

The devil once visited the valley of the Ahr and found so much favor on land and people, but above all on the excellent red wine, that he forgot his return home. One day, when he was resting on the mountain opposite the Are Are Castle, his grandmother approached him in the form of a beautiful maiden. In the arms of the devil in love, she quickly turned back to the all too well-known, disgusting old woman. He grabbed his grandmother angrily and flung her back down the cliff to hell. This is how the Devil's Hole came to be, which can still be seen above Altenahr.

View of Altenahr from Schwarzen Kreuz

Highlight • Viewpoint

On the Heislei above Altenahr, the Black Cross is located at a popular vantage point overlooking Altenahr, the ruin of the Are Castle and the Devil's Hole.

Jacob Caspary from Altenahr set there on 11 April 1865 for the first time a wooden cross on.

Rock outcrop and view of the Ahr Valley

Probably the most beautiful part of the panoramic path above Pützfeld. From here you have a very nice view of the Ahr valley.
