View of the Sinter Terraces of the Weiße Lauter

Highlight • Natural Monument

The "sinter terraces" are located near Gutenberg (a district of Lenningen) in the Esslingen district of Baden-Württemberg.

- a "natural monument" that deserves protection!

- numerous sinter terraces and basins have formed on the gradient steps of the "Weiße Lauter"
- - see also: geopark-alb.de/de/Sinterterrassen/Sintertreppe-Wei%C3%9Fe-Lauter
- Sinter steps or sinter terraces are deposits of porous calcareous tufa in a flowing body of water
- the area around the sinter terraces is a valuable habitat for many animals and plants!
- The travertine terraces are not accessible, as the delicate structures are destroyed upon entry and must regenerate over a long period of time.

- In 2020, the entrances were closed teckbote.de/nachrichten/lokalnachrichten-lenninger-tal_artikel,-badende-zerstoeren-ein-paradies-_arid,253010.html
