The dinosaur tracks of Barkhausen are a natural monument in a disused quarry in the Linner Berg near Barkhausen on the Hunte, a district of the Lower Saxony municipality of Bad Essen in the district of Osnabrück. On the bedding planes of the rock, which is about 150 million years old (Middle Kimmeridgian), fossil tracks (sequences of fossil footprints) of sauropod and theropod dinosaurs from the late Upper Jurassic (Malm) are exposed.

The drinking water dispenser at this point, before the climb to Kahlen Wart, is a good place to fill up your bottle! However, it needs some attention: It's dripping! 😱 😱 😱

Beautiful ride along the shore, but in places the path is in need of repair.
