    Sinter terraces are deposits of porous limestone tuff or lime sinter in flowing water. These sintered terraces are more common in the Franconian Alb. Nice to look at. These are even younger than the so-called limestone tufa terrace near Kainsbach (a limestone sinter terrace really worth seeing).

    Sinter terraces are caused by limescale deposits in the spring water. These are less well known than the wide south-west facing terraces.
