ラートベルゲンの天然記念物・トップ20

From the path where you can park your bike (or at the alpine hut), you can walk a short distance to the Dörenther Klippen. If you dare, climb up a bit and admire the Hockendes Weib rock formation.

Unfortunately, the canyon does not come into its own as beautifully as here in the photos. Unfortunately, it is not worth setting this as a destination, since there are no seating options either. Of course it's a nice change from the forest, but we expected more from the canyon.

Unique views of the clear waters of the canyon

The origin as a quarry is (unfortunately) clearly recognizable. But at least one of the nicer sights of mining in the region and nature is reclaiming the area bit by bit. The view from the vantage point is beautiful, but it doesn't make you forget how it could be here, if you hadn't first intervened heavily in nature.

Nice cliffs to climb

Due to the high lime content, the water is crystal clear and turquoise in color. This effect is enhanced in the sunshine. A real eye-catcher!

The approximately 500 meter long Lengericher Canyon is also called the Blue Lagoon. It could also be the film set for "The Treasure at Silver Lake" near Winnetou.

The "Squatting Woman" is an imposing rock formation with an associated legend, according to which a mother turned to stone to save her children from approaching floodwaters. There are several climbing opportunities, but caution is advised. Several paths lead to and around the Squatting Woman.
