These are old measuring towers from the quarry. The mud pond (as it's called by Eisborn residents, and the "Blue Lagoon" on social media) used to be in a different …

Blue Lagoon in the Asbeck Quarry

Highlight • Lake

Worth a detour, especially when the weather is nice, as the strong blue of the "Blue Lagoon" comes out very nicely here. Some of the paths there also offer very nice views 😊

February 16, 2025,Steinbruch Asbeck Eisborn – Bank mit Ausblick Runde von Eisborn

The dead end at the quarry was an attempt to see the other lake. Unfortunately, it was unsuccessful! Unfortunately, we were stopped by barbed wire.
As the route continued, there were repeatedly fallen trees on the path. Previous hikers had already found diversions, so it is definitely possible to continue there. A small path along the barbed wire leads back …

I got this tour from Komoot. We only included the detour to the Ebberg observation tower.
At about 2.8 km, we couldn't go any further. There was supposed to be a path next to the barrier 🤷‍♀️, but it was pretty overgrown. We turned around and took the other route. The way back was quite paved, but otherwise it was …

On Easter Monday, we still hiked a cozy, "small" tour in the neighboring municipality. Great views, some great things to discover along the way.
Mostly on wide forest and forest paths, but also exciting single trail sections.

Today, our hiking group enjoyed a lovely hike to the Blue Lagoon in the Eisborn quarry in the Sauerland region. The sun was rather elusive, but that didn't bother us. Despite the snow, the paths were easy to walk on. The Blue Lagoon viewpoint was our first destination, followed by the Ebberg Tower, inaugurated in 2013 and, at 13 meters …

May 12, 2022,Balve - Blaue Lagune 🦋🪲🌄

The blue lagoon in the Asbeck/Balve quarry in Sauerland is a so-called groundwater lake that was created by digging up soil. The water is used in the Hönnetal plant to wash the stone. The washed-off fine clay and limestone sediments are washed back and settle.
Over time, the lakes silt up and dry and periodically wet areas emerge as new …
