Hiking

The entire area of the Hemer Sea of Rocks extends over 35 hectares and is mostly covered by a beech forest. Many rare animal and plant species inhabit the forest, the dead wood and the cool and damp crevices in the rocks. The Hemer Sea of Rocks is accessible all year round. Sturdy shoes are recommended. There are information boards at the entrances to the Sea of Rocks. The Panorama Trail of the Sea of Rocks marked there opens up the most beautiful areas and the impressive viewpoints.

Hiking

The Felsenmeer in Hemer, a unique natural monument in the Sauerland, combines natural history and cultural aspects in a fascinating way. The geological formation of this remarkable geotope dates back millions of years and is the result of the weathering of limestone through dissolution processes. Rainwater, enriched with carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, turns into a weak acid that dissolves limestone, forming the characteristic rock formations of the Felsenmeer. Over geological periods, the impressive landforms that are now known as the Sea of Rocks emerged.
