From a dry grass area in the NSG Hellberg, which is located above the towering rocks (so be careful!), you have an unobstructed view of the Rittelsberg quarry, whose steep rock face shows numerous layers of rock.
Yes, quarries are an intervention in nature, but they are also an important tool for geology and geological knowledge.
And from here you can also see far into the Nahe Valley to Kirn and the Gauskopf.

Even though the view wasn't that great today, the view is still impressive
