You're standing at the memorial site of the former Hinzert concentration camp. It's quiet up here. You're on the Hochwald plateau, about 550 metres high, with conifer forest all around and the Hunsrück hills in view. Winters here were wet, foggy and freezing, which made life even harder for the prisoners.
