The natural monument is walkable on small paths and worth seeing. The nature around has grown partly into a small jungle

It's worth seeing because everything is completely natural and a small, secluded wilderness.
The small paths in the old quarry are barely visible; everything is very overgrown, and many trees lie crisscrossing the area. You have to watch your step carefully to avoid tripping. Be careful when approaching from above; despite the wooden railing, there's a risk of falling.

An abandoned quarry in Rödermark, in the Urberach district, near the border with Dreieich, features a sandstone cliff face. It's an interesting sight. Traces of old quarrying are still visible, and nature has been largely left to its own devices, resulting in a small primeval forest.
