Wow, there's so much to discover here, it's amazing! :-) Who actually knows the air observation bunker above the quarry? And who the thousands of cartridge cases of the combat groups of the GDR? And who the old transport track remains in the forest? And who the many other quarries in the woods around the large open quarry? Every path brings something new.

Hiking

The path is worth it: skilfile rock formations, impressive landscape, historical trappings (the post house in the forest behind, the cartridge cases of the former shooting range of the combat groups, the remains of the cable car in the forest, etc.), and a beautiful landscape on the way and way.
