Photogenic rock formation in the nature reserve in the DE CZ border region

This weathering phenomenon can be observed worldwide, mainly in coarse-crystalline, massive rocks such as granite, granodiorite, diorite and corresponding gneiss, and also in thick-banked sandstone. The "wool sacks" often form largely vegetation-free rock castles, such as on the Externsteine and in many places in the Harz Mountains, in the Black Forest on the Karlstein near Hornberg and the Günterfelsen near Furtwangen, in Myanmar (Goldener Fels), in the Devil's Kitchen in the Upper Palatinate Forest or over a large area from Felsenmeeren, in the Luisenburg rock labyrinth in the Fichtelgebirge, in the Blockheide (Waldviertel, Lower Austria) or in the Felsenmeer in the Odenwald
