Place to stay and relax.

Quarry on the Ebersberg, where material for the lime works that were shut down in 1957 near the Springer train station was extracted. The limestone was deposited in a shallow, warm sea about 163 to 157 million years ago. The older rocks are the Heersumer strata (163 million years ago) and above (younger) is coral oolite (157 million). The quarry wall then shows a few million years of geological history from top to bottom. Formed in the sea, the layers of rock contain fossils of sea animals. The geological period in which this happened is called the Jurassic (201 to 145 million years ago, "Jurassic Park").

Very nice view. Very busy Sunday at lunchtime

Look down into the valley between the trees.

Tiring climb, but for this view it is definitely worth it.

Have recently seen children again at the upper edge of the quarry .. Please dear parents, sometimes the edge is undercut, keep your distance.

Out of order in winter, unfortunately. Still a place to pause for a moment on the bench, as there is even a shelter.

Just great up here. Suspended but sure. Thanks to the railing: 'The Teufelskanzel or the Green Altar is located where the cliff path leads down from the Platteauweg. The promising platform has a railing and can be reached via stairs. ' Freely quoted from Richard Goedecke 'Die Felsen des Weser-Leine-Berglands', 2nd edition 1978.
