Hiking

The rectangular bulges under the ledge are man-made. Presumably they come from charcoal families who lived here in the rocks until the beginning of the 19th century and made charcoal.

Hiking

This large, protruding rock is called frog's mouth, reminiscent of an open frog's mouth.

On the underside of the frog's mouth you can see a form of weathering that is reminiscent of honeycombs, which is called honeycomb weathering.
