    Tips

    The Meißner is a large, connected basalt massif. All around you can find some basalt fields and block heaps, where the hard basalt cover did not completely withstand weathering: due to the effects of frost during the Ice Age, parts of the basalt cover collapsed into block heaps and slipped in places.

      This basalt field can be found if you follow the path up to the left of the Frau Holle pond. Above the Frau Holle pond you can see this larger basalt field.
