This extensive natural monument is a geological oddity. Lime-rich water bubbles from the ground and, thanks to the limestone deposits, forms its own slightly raised streambed.
This water channel is continuously fed by four springs for the first 50 meters. Mystically mysterious, gently rippling and occasionally gurgling, it winds its way between stately beech trees, changing its course at right angles several times, for a distance of 270 meters down the forest slope, flows into a sewer pipe, and finally flows into the Schwarzbach stream.
