노펠덴‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

The highest point in Saarland is located in a very quiet forest. Without the sign you probably wouldn't notice it.

There is still a Celtic ring wall in Otzenhausen today, which is considered the best-preserved Celtic monument in Germany. The complex, also known as the “Hunnenring”, is 40 m thick and still reaches a height of 12 m today. Archaeological excavations are still active here. In the Celtic Park, at the foot of the Otzenhausen ring wall, a “real” Celtic village is currently being built, just as it might have looked 2,000 years ago within the huge fortress at the top of the Dollberg. The reconstruction of an authentic Celtic settlement is an essential part of the emerging Celtic park. When completed, the settlement will consist of a total of 10 residential, craft and storage buildings, the architecture and construction of which are based on historical findings and models. Preparatory work for the construction of the fourth and final construction group, consisting of a residential and a craftsman's house, recently began.

The Dollberg is 695 m above sea level. NN is the highest mountain in Saarland and belongs to one of the prominent mountain ranges in the high forest. These stretch as ridges running from southwest to northeast from the Saar to the Rhine. The ridges consist of quartzite, which in turn has its origin in sandstone. This was finally transformed into quartzite by pressure and high temperatures during the folding of the mountains in the Devonian. Due to its hardness, it is comparatively weather-resistant. As the surrounding, softer rock was eroded, the quartzite deposits were preserved as ridges. A beautiful hiking destination and, as the highest "mountain" in Saarland, of course also a highlight here in the region. https://www.naturpark.org/natur-und-kultur/natur/geologie/geopunkte-devon-permokarbon-nonnweiler-und-zuesch/dollberg

Beautiful imposing rocks, really great.

Very impressive rock, great.

Traveling to all 16 peaks in the federal states, it is very interesting to see how differently the states deal with their highest peaks. Perhaps the term "natural" fits quite well here

In short ..... a great rock formation

𝐊𝐮𝐫𝐳𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐢𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐧𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐡-𝐏𝐟𝐚𝐝 The Tiefenbach path is around 15 km long and leads around the Bosenberg in St Wendel. It is characterized by many small valleys that are crossed by rustic footbridges. At the starting point is the Wendelinushof, the former farm of the Steyler missionaries, which is still managed today. Here products from the region are offered in the local goods market and in the restaurant. The Leitersweiler beeches, about 250 to 300 years old giant trees, are a very special natural monument. They line the path into the Tiefenbachtal and offer a great view of Leitersweiler and the surrounding Hunsrück heights. Clear water still bubbles in the miner's fountain today. At the Fledermauskopf you can enjoy wonderful views of the surroundings of the Sankt Wendel region. In the distance, the 568 m high Schaumberg stands out, one of the highest peaks in the region. The view also wanders over the mountain tops of the eastern Saarland and opens up into the Ostertal. After the hike, the medieval old town of St Wendel invites you to linger. It is also worth visiting the late Gothic basilica from the 14th century, in which the bones of St. Wendelinus are buried in a high grave at the altar.
