    Hiking

    Nature has brought back the walls carved into the rock in the quarry near Kirchleus. In the meantime, the disused area has developed into a retreat for rare animals and plants.

    Hiking

    Beware of the break-off edge, it crumbles away quite easily. There is a path along the edge, but it is actually forbidden and in any case only to be taken at your own risk.
    The old quarry is now developing into a very interesting, largely left to its own natural area. It should be converted into a nature reserve and not misused as a building rubble dump like the quarry right next to it.
