Hiking

A short but fascinating path over weathered clay slate. You walk over grey-black rock that was formed in the Devonian period over 350 million years ago from clastic sedimentary rocks (debris rocks from other weathered or mechanically destroyed rocks). On the slope you can also see narrow vertical layers of yellow-brownish limestone.
Conclusion: You are literally travelling through the history of the earth here.

The hiking trail leads along above the Hüttenstrasse. Fascinating clay slate rocks, the path with clay slate/rock. If you continue along this path you will reach the Altenauer Herzweg Station 16 - Reanimation, with a rotating music box 🌝
