The natural monument made of basalt rock, which is managed by the Werra Valley Association, is always worth a visit. The narrow, well-groomed paths and the stones themselves transport me to a different, earlier world with every stay.

Hiking

The access to the sea stones requires a safe step from above.
The old basalt steps can be tricky, especially when it is wet and covered with leaves.

Hiking

With all the enjoyment of the idyllic nature and the carefree hiking, it is important for me to think of those who were only allowed to live on earth for a short time, and whose lives have been burned up because of some twisted political or religious ideology. Here is one of those places that motivates constant vigilance.
