Great lookout point with a view of the rocky gorges and Lake Afryka. Here, where the trees cannot take root, you can particularly well observe the process of erosion on the high and steep embankments of the residual mining waters. However, this place, where the reclamation process is actually not working so well, is very attractive for the visitors. A staircase and a boardwalk lead down into the rocky gorges, which are well worth seeing.

The geopark can be explored on foot or by bike. And it's really worth it. Swimming is prohibited due to the extremely low pH value. But each lake has its own beauty.
