    Hiking

    A basalt quarry in an old sand pit? No, only an artificial "quarry" was built here. This was done so that the landscape park would incorporate typical Rhineland elements (just as all the surrounding streets are named after the Siebengebirge mountains). But probably also to make it more similar to its model in Paris: the Buttes-Chaumont Park, which was created from a real quarry.

    A photo in the Klettenbergweiher highlight shows how mighty the basalt wall appears when it's free of brambles. t1p.de/ix653

    The authorities should take care of that! t1p.de/39ov7

    December 2024: As you can see from NiK's photo today, something has been done.
