Cliffs Beside the Quarry

Highlight • Climb

You can climb here, but you should be careful because in many places the ground is not so stable. But the view from above is really beautiful. You can see the quarry very well.

Salzhemmendorfer Wände Quarry

An old quarry in which there is all sorts of things to discover and which invites you to linger. In good weather it is the ideal place for a picnic.

Ruins of the Old Quarry

Highlight • Structure

A little mysterious and mystical. Interesting, complex wall construction, but BE CAREFUL!! Some protruding iron bars, loose stones, tripping hazards, etc. Warehouses, residential buildings, "administration"? Nature reclaims itself.
