Serpentinite was mainly mined in this quarry. Iron ore was actually supposed to be found here, but only in small quantities. Adders have found a home here - these snakes are very shy and should not be provoked if found, as they are poisonous.

When you're on your way to the cave. Very quiet and beautiful here.
