At the boulder stack you will get to know the four rock classes as they can be found at different depths of the earth or on the earth's surface: plutonic rock such as granite, effusion rock such as porphyry, metamorphosed rock such as gneiss or sedimentary rock such as sandstone. You can also touch the stones, which are polished smooth in places, and feel how different the rock types are.
