Bacher Lay Basalt Quarry
Highlight • Natural Monument
The Bacher Lay is characterized by a mighty, almost vertical basalt stone wall, which was created by the earlier basalt mining. The nearby "Pfaffenmal", an 18-meter-high columnar basalt cone in the construction of a mile, is also worth seeing. (Source Wickipedia)
The place is really great and the bike path is just very nice. Just check it out for yourself !!

And the weather: bright blue sky, no clouds and always a gentle breeze. So it's fun to ride a bike at around 25 degrees Celsius in the afternoon.
