    Tips

    The lime sintered terraces in the Ammer Gorge are a special natural phenomenon: near the lime kiln footbridge, steps have probably formed due to a reaction of the groundwater, which emerges in several places here, in connection with air. The resulting calcareous sinter runs like a fine crust over the soil and the plants growing there.
