Hiking

A huge area! You can see the "funnel 'of the quarry from the top and stand directly in front of abysses with steep walls. You shouldn't be afraid of heights here. The paths are secured by fences and there are viewing platforms with great views!

Hiking

If you assume that THIS hole was the highest point of the Piesberg in the 1970s, then you can (probably not!) imagine how many stones were mined here.

Hiking

Impressive perspective in the still active quarry with a view of the individual layers of the earth.
