    Rocky outcrops of slate, siliceous shale and greywacke. Ground for protection: geological significance, peculiarity, beauty.

    You have to make a few steps into the forest from the sign to see the actual highlight.

      A basalt breakthrough, with 445m the highest point of the ridge of the Hörre.

        You shouldn't expect too much from this highlight regarding the name “Burg”.
        There is not much to see of the basalt breakthrough anyway. However, a very nice place to take a break.
