ラインガルテンの峡谷・トップ4

The quarry offers a fascinating insight into the reed sandstone formation that forms the Heuchelberg massif. The mining operations created a gorge-like section that stands out sharply from the otherwise rather uniform elevations of the Heuchelberg.

Lots of roots at the beginning, but easy as you go. Ride from top to bottom ;-)

The quarry is a relic from times long past and has not been "in operation" for a long time. Nevertheless, it is beautiful to look at the rock formation - it almost looks as if you can "see" different centuries.

You live in one place for almost 50 years and yet you discover new, exciting paths by chance. Good footwear is highly recommended, especially when the ground is damp or even wet. As with everything else in life, it's worth taking a new path every now and then at a junction. I was impressed and will look at it again in the summer. Today we hiked from top to bottom and came out at the bunker right on the Neckar.

The path here leads past a former quarry. It goes down a few meters steeply here. The best way to get to the quarry is from Schillerplatz, although there is no real path there either. In Mühlbach (further to the southwest), for example, stones were worked. Mühlbach is still known today as a stonemason's village (like Schmie, which is also on the Eppingen lines towards Maulbronn).

Perfect for hot days.

Once upon a time - a relic of bygone times

The "gorge" is a spur of the former quarry that was located here.
