The "Quarkquetsche" is a surface and natural monument in the Hohwald, characterized by the unique stone formations. With the adjacent full-blown quarry results in an idyllic picture - but beware: Baden forbidden!

Until 2022 it was a lake. Since 2024 the water has been completely pumped out and the quarry is in operation again. Entry to the site is prohibited.
