Glacial Mills, Gorge Trail, Sevelen
Or constant dripping wears away the stone
The deep holes (Kolke) in the streambed were formed 15,000 to 20,000 years ago towards the end of the last Ice Age. Glacial meltwater cascaded through crevasses onto the bedrock more than 100 meters below. The loose material (sand and stone fragments) dissolved from the rock and carried along by the water acted as an abrasive that even hard rock could not resist. Over the millennia, this is how the typical rounded outcrops and kettle-like shapes in the terrain developed.

It is the sediments present in the melting glacier ice that, in combination with powerful torrents, have created such a natural spectacle
