Be careful when climbing around, you can also fall down here

Block stream Kaser Steinstube > a geotope The impressive block stream of the "Kaser Steinstube" begins below the quartz conglomerate horizon, which is broken into large plates and is located at the edge of the plateau, and stretches down the slope for more than 100 m. A temporary stream flows through it. In some places the quartz conglomerate blocks pile up on top of each other and form small cover caves. The block stream was formed in the Pleistocene at a time of increased erosion and soil flow in the periglacial area. The geotope was awarded the "Bavaria's 100 most beautiful geotopes" seal of quality and is explained on site with an information board.

Crocodile Rocks of Landerham >a geotope This quartz conglomerate block, which has a crocodile-like shape when viewed from the southeast, forms a landmark that can be seen from afar in an open field. The block is the remnant of a formerly more widespread conglomerate cover and probably slipped from its original higher location within a solifluction cover in the Pleistocene. The block shows, as is often the case in the quartz conglomerate bank, a grain size change from gravel (conglomerate) to sand (sandstone).

Hollow rock of Churfürst > a geotope A large quartz conglomerate block has been pushed over other conglomerate blocks in such a way that a large cavity has been created underneath, which was used as a dry shelter by woodworkers. Through solifluction (soil flow) during the cold periods, the rock blocks moved from their original position a little higher up the slope to their current position. The geotope is located on a marked hiking trail. There are other striking blocks in the area: Dragon, Dwarf Castle, Three Giants.

is a bit difficult to find, no sign

The oldest burial mounds in Lower Bavaria. In the middle of the woods.

the route around the Rottauensee is an easy, family-friendly, very beautiful route and you can eat very well at the Rottauensee in Italia am See (Schwanhof 1, Postmünster)
