    The rock paintings are not easy to find. Coming from Schmie, an inconspicuous path starts at the beginning of the small forest. Almost at the very end, turn left into the forest. Then follow this path to your destination.
    It's worth it!

      Super cool change. Very shady to take a break

          The work of art was created by sculptors Sandra and Uwe Fischer in the 1990s.

          This impressive collection of very large cairns in a "quarry" directly on the outskirts of the small community of Schmie stretches over a length of approximately 700 meters and is completely embedded in the rock of the plateau above the Schmie Valley. A nearby spring, the Schmie River, appears to have determined the location of this and other necropolises. Today, the cairns are completely hidden by a small forest.

            According to my research, the statues were created by various artists at several symposiums in the 1960s and 1970s.

            Definitely worth a look.

              Felsvormation with pictures. Couldn't see her. I guess it was in the wrong place. The area is still beautiful.
