    The quartz rocks to the "gray lei"
    Largest monolith in the Rhenish Oberland. The rocks at Rapperath, Hunolstein and on the Dörrwiese are among the most impressive natural monuments and form a section of a large quartz corridor that begins north of Saarburg and ends at the Gray Lei. It thus runs parallel to the ridges of the Idar and Haardt forest with a changeable thickness, which in the Dhrontal on the Dörrwiese reaches up to 30 meters and on the Grauen Lei even 100 meters.
