Island in the Sun - the Mount of Olives
We are here on the former Mount of Olives island, which consists of rocks from the Rotliegend period (290 million years ago) and was surrounded by a sea in the Tertiary about 30 million years ago.

In this former quarry fascinating rhyolite formations can be seen. Rhyolite is a volcanic rock.
Rhyolite consists predominantly of quartz and feldspar. A rhyolitic magma can form a regular pattern of bleeding upon solidification, creating hexagonal columns, as known from basalt. Source: Wikipedia

Within the "Ölberg" quarry, a species-rich dry grassland landscape has developed – a biodiversity hotspot. Rare plant species, adapted to the dry, nutrient-poor environment, thrive here, and numerous endangered animal species also feel at home in this unique habitat.
In addition to the diverse flora and fauna, the area also offers fascinating rock formations to discover: The striking rhyolite formations in the quarry consist of volcanic rock and sometimes display an astonishingly regular pattern of hexagonal columns – a real eye-catcher.
