Hike with Maik⛰️🌲🏃

Hiking

This small, impressive quarry is located between the Liebethaler Grund and the electricity works in Lohmener Grund. At the edge of the path there are many larger stone blocks where you can have a picnic or observe a bit of the surroundings. Caution !!! As it is an active quarry, entry is prohibited. Every now and then there may be explosions.

Lohmen sandstone has been a popular material for a long time and is still actively mined today. Here you can experience stone breaking without much effort and right on the way.
