    Hiking

    💚💙🎨🖌The beautifully emerald-green lake-
    used for washing the limestone:
    The sediments washed from the stone are channeled back into the lake and settle there,
    so that the "Blue Lagoon" shimmers fascinatingly depending on the sunlight🌞💙.
    💙💚The quarry and the surrounding high plateaus of the limestone ridge belong to the company Rheinkalk🤍, a subsidiary of the Belgian Lhoist Group🤍,
    the world's largest producer of lime and dolomite products🤍.

    Beautiful view from the recultivated heap into the quarry basin. Around 230 million tons of limestone were mined here from 1907 to 1996.
