The Thadenbruch is a real eye-catcher, not only wonderful rock and crystal clear water, no, also a direct rail connection to the quarry lake. It is really beautiful how the lake of the quarry fits into the forest today.

January 19, 2025,Königshainer Berge

Today, in beautiful weather, we went to the Königshain mountains. We were looking forward to climbing the tower. But no luck. 🙁 It was closed. The friendly service staff at the mountain lodge made no exceptions; they only open when the weather is nice. Hmm... nicer than today, at this time of year, is there anything nicer? 🤔 Otherwise, it …

I happened to see a sign for the granite quarry while peeing, so I stretched my legs a bit.
I think that was quite a workout...
Definitely a great hiking trail and very interesting for quarry fans like me 😊👍🏼
There's also a railway bike path here (for my favorite sister) 😊.

September 8, 2024,Kleine Runde in den Steinbrüchen der Königshainer Berge

Lots of people discovered the quarries for swimming. As far as I know, that's actually forbidden. We passed many quarries and the former blacksmith's shop, passed the Totenstein (and also up) to …

I was surprised again what great spots of nature there are. The quarries are filled with water and if you are lucky they are turquoise. The walls of the quarry tower gigantic into the air. This looks really great. There is a lookout tower and a restaurant on the Hochstein, both of which are worth visiting. When the weather is …
