Hiking

In the area of the summit at height 495, old Tertiary silicifications occur in Reinhausen layers (Lower Turonian). The grey, hard rock shows few primary rock features. However, relict layer joints can be seen on a cliff almost 1 m high (outcrop heavily overgrown). In the area there are a few individual blocks of silicified rocks, so-called Kallmünzer. Neither the time nor the process of silicification has been satisfactorily clarified to this day. Bavarian State Office for the Environment (LfU).
