Otterberg quarry with a panel explaining the historical background

A great way through the gorge. There is also a bit of action offered by the small climbing insert.

Beautiful, well-restored castle ruins with a great view. There is also a place to stop for refreshments right at the castle.

A special place: very steep in history and nice to rest (seating area + single bench). This is "undoubtedly a sacred stone from ancient pagan times. The massive colossus may have played an important role almost 3,000 years ago in the orbit of an Iron Age ancestor cult." To the right of the menhir: a well-preserved boundary stone with an "Otterberg abbot's staff. The left [boundary stone], only preserved as a stump, once bore the inscription 'Falkenstein'."

The exposed quarry in Scheidwald near Otterberg is an almost 20 meter high red sandstone wall, from which sandstone blocks used to be broken to build houses. The sandstone had been lying fallow since the 1950s, until the idea arose to integrate the quarry into the Hinkelsteinweg of the Otterbach-Otterberg community. The exposed and secured former quarry has been open to the public since 2020 and enhances the experience character of the Hinkelsteinweg.

We didn't see the fridge, but it was still very impressive

A menhir with two boundary stones.

A great huge sundial on the Reiserberg. Here you also have a great 360° view. There are several tables and benches here, and a drinks station with chilled drinks. You can also charge up to 3 mobile phones at the drinks cabinet and have free WiFi.
