Hiking

Medieval basalt quarry on Steinberg is well worth seeing. This suggests an extinct tertiary volcano.

Hiking

The Stone Mountain (283 m) in Lubań is a remnant of tertiary volcanoes and probably the oldest "basalt" quarry near Lubań. The medieval city walls, towers and older buildings were probably built from the blocks excavated here. At the top, a large park was created between the quarries in the second half of the 19th century. There you can find interesting geological formations such as volcanic bombs or 10-15 meter high basalt columns.
