Southwest of Wachenzell, in a dry valley, rises the so-called Rock Labyrinth, a 24-meter-wide and 10-meter-high rock wall made of tabular sponge limestone from the Malm Delta. Behind it lies a large sinkhole. In the immediate vicinity, a karst shaft, which serves as a water sinkhole during precipitation, leads vertically downward. The natural monument is registered as Bavarian Geotope No. 176R011 "Ponordoline Wachenzell." (Source: Wikipedia)
Note: The path to the rocks is not entirely obvious. The rocks themselves are quite overgrown. I followed wide tractor tracks and a trail directly to the rocks. Although there were no prohibition signs, I'm still unsure whether access is permitted.
