    Along the historic quartz quarry at the Großer Pfahl, the white quartz towers monumentally into the sky. Great photo motif for hikers - but also to admire and enjoy. A beautiful circular hiking trail leads around the rock massif.

      I always find these quartz rocks fascinating.

            Very impressive rock formations. Highly recommended! The path runs partly through the forest, but is also partly very sunny! In between it goes over root paths. Sturdy shoes are recommended.
