      Hoxfels

      Hoxfels is the name given to the striking steep edge on the northern edge of the "Horst Intrusion". It was created by erosion of existing sediments and erosion of less resistant rocks from the fissured edge area of the feeder channel. The latitandesite is partially columnar. Age approx. 280 - 290 million years. Source: Text information board
