      It's pretty far down here, the column is quite deep. Without a bridge it would be more of an adventure who gets to the other side :-).

        Small metal bridge that you have to cross 🔗

          An unbelievable nature all around! But not without danger for small children. Open your eyes, dear parents!

            It's unbelievable how the Alb continues to move, a ditch / crack almost 200 m long and about two meters wide. You need a bridge to overcome it

              Here you can see from the crevices that the "Hanging Stone" will break off due to earth shifts in the geological future and fall down the night eaves.

                Here you can see that nature is not finished with the eaves edge. In a few hundred - maybe even a thousand - years things will probably look different here

                  The first time I was here at night. Luckily I went intuitively across the bridge. Otherwise I would have fared badly.

                          Very impressive crevices over which the small footbridge leads.

                            The bridge is not the highlight 😂
                            The columns around it are much better 😉👌🏻

                              without the bridge it would not go on

                                Small, inconspicuous iron bridge - the gap it bridges is the superficial highlight - and the nature that created it and continues to work on it is the underlying highlight.

                                      A partly quite deep crevice has formed in the rock here. A small bridge allows you to cross it.

                                        Eyes on the gap is not secured. The gap can be crossed via the small bridge.
