    n a large nature reserve in the middle of the second largest nature park in Germany - the Altmühltal - twelve huge rock formations attract thousands of visitors each year. Between the idyllic community of Solnhofen, which is best known for its historic excavations from the quarries, and its district of Eßlingen, the monsters made of dolomitic lime from the shores of the Altmühl range from the ground.

        Probably the most famous rock formation in the Altmühltal. There is also a hiking trail that runs above the rocks but the best view is from the bike path.
