Tips

Hunsbuckel 🇺🇦

June 2, 2019

On the ridges of the Hunsrück, quartzite is the landscape-defining rock. It comes from sand deposits of the earth's antiquity, which were strongly solidified under the pressure of later deposited layers. The quartzite is embedded in softer rock such as slate and greywacke, which is easier to remove. Because of its high resistance to weathering and erosion, the quartzite hardeners protrude in places as bizarre rock formations from the earth. Over the course of millions of years, they have been prepared by wind and weather to the present day natural monuments.
Their collection-like occurrence is also referred to as Hunsrück rock chain.
