Hambacher Tagebau

Very interesting view into the huge open pit!

At 299 m below sea level (as of 2018), the Hambach opencast mine is the deepest open spot in Germany: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Extrempunkte_Deutschlands#K%C3%BCnstliche_Erzüge_und_VertiefungenFrom the viewing platform you have a great overview of the open pit mine and see the huge excavators. This is impressive even without binoculars, with you can see many more details. The Speedway begins in the other direction, a former long-distance conveyor line for the overburden.

great view of the open pit Hambach and the Sophienhöhe

You do not see much from here! Without a telephoto lens you can not take any reasonable pictures from here. Bring binoculars!

An impressive hole in the ground already! What you got out of excavation over the years ....

Very interesting view into the huge open pit!

Also interesting is the circumnavigation of the open pit with some insights. If you are fit, you can also take the Sophienhöhe with you

That is very impressive!

A gigantic lignite mining area

Good view of open pit with benches and umbrellas. Nice playground

Gigantic "environmental destruction". Our grandchildren will perhaps ask us what kind of nonsense their ancestors allowed to exploit the earth in this way for our hunger for energy

Simply enormous, what the dimensions are.

Frightening and fascinating at the same time ...

Great excursion destination: Has something 👌 I'll be back no question 👌

In quotation marks "great" view. A good opportunity to think about it in peace over the following kilometers.

The climate madness is very visible here!

Let's see what it looks like here in a few years.
