These rocks are a scenic highlight in the Altmühltal Nature Park. From the bike path you can see the impressive rock formation, the Twelve Apostles, standing vertically on the river bank.

The rock towers are made of sponge limestone, a type of rock that weathers harder than the surrounding White Jura. Because of this, the Twelve Apostles have carved out of the surrounding sloping slopes over the years and can be seen today as this beautiful rock formation.
