Bench on hill

Interesting rock formations. There's a small kiosk at the parking lot. Access to the sea of rocks is free.

The board tells you a lot about the planet Uranus. Unfortunately, the planetary model is no longer there (June 25).

Former tank area of the German Blücher Barracks. Walk to Deilinghofen Apricke to the old British and American barracks.

Beautiful view of the valley. Behind the bench, a trail leads off.

It's very busy here on weekends, so it's good to have plenty of parking options.

Unfortunately, the name of the highlight is misleading. "Along the Sauerlandpark Emer" would be better, as the park as such is not open to cyclists as far as I know. Access to the park is subject to a fee and is sometimes only possible via turnstiles. Otherwise, I agree with Joy's comments.

The Felsenmeer in Hemer, a unique natural monument in the Sauerland, combines natural history and cultural aspects in a fascinating way. The geological formation of this remarkable geotope dates back millions of years and is the result of the weathering of limestone through dissolution processes. Rainwater, enriched with carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, turns into a weak acid that dissolves limestone, forming the characteristic rock formations of the Felsenmeer. Over geological periods, the impressive landforms that are now known as the Sea of ​​Rocks emerged. This nature reserve is not only a prime example of the dynamic forces of earth's history, but also a place full of legends. One of the stories is about dwarves who searched for precious metals under the rocks and about giants who wanted to steal these treasures. The legendary dwarven king Alberich is said to have used a magic spell to cause the ceiling of the rock hall to collapse, which buried the giants under the rocks and created the sea of ​​rocks. Visitors can explore the Sea of ​​Rocks on various paths, including a wooden walkway that leads directly over the cliffs and rocks. There is also a viewing platform and an upper bridge that are barrier-free, allowing visitors with limited mobility to enjoy the nature reserve. Dogs are allowed on a leash, and there is a large, free parking lot at the neighboring Sauerland Park. The Felsenmeer Hemer is a special experience in every season, be it snowy, in the colorful autumn forest or in the lush green of summer. The cliffs and caves of the Felsenmeer are part of the impressive karst landscape, which visitors can explore in more detail on display boards. The recognition as an "Important Geological Monument of Germany" and as a "National Geotope" underlines the unique significance of this natural monument and its position as one of Germany's outstanding natural wonders.
