The Schnee Eifel is a heavily wooded landscape in Germany's Central Uplands, up to 699.1 m above sea level (NHN),[1] that forms part of the western Eifel in the area of the German-Belgian border. The name may have been derived in the 19th century from the Schneifel chain of hills, which had nothing to do with snow (Schnee), but with the name for a forest swathe (Schneise).
