    The site is called "Alte Eiche" (Old Oak). It was once a quarry, as evidenced by the many dumps, rubble, and other remains. Numerous information panels explain the craftsmanship of Roman times, as well as the formation of the site through volcanic activity.

      The trail leads through a former quarry. Information panels explain interesting historical facts. The ancient boulders and steep cliffs are eye-catching.
