    Hiking

    The Muhmenlay is one of the most mysterious places in the Bollendorf forest. It is said that 300 years ago, an old muhme, an herbal witch who provided the inhabitants of Bollendorf with medicinal herbs, lived here in a rock cave. There is a narrow, high entrance to this cave in the rock. Her spirit is said to still live here.

    Very nice rock formation.
    The term "lay" comes from the Celtic and means slate or slate rock.
