Here an originally much higher basalt crest was almost completely removed. The remains of the quarry are worth a detour. A nice hidden corner: towering basalt columns and a "cave" through a basalt tower. However, the trails around the quarry are in places more of a hiker than MTBiker.

I can not confirm anything for bikers. Partly steep and steep down on narrow gravelly paths. Partly narrow paths on a ridge that you can go just like that.
Not for the inexperienced, very hard not to drive at all.
