The former quarry at Steinschab is a must-see destination in the Sauerland. Here, you can gaze upon 380 million years of Earth’s history. Discover the fine-grained Nehden sandstone, which was folded diagonally during the formation of the Rhenish Slate Mountains. While hiking in Hallenberg, see up close how ancient water left wave-like ripple marks in the rock layers. With a little luck, you might even find fossilized plant remains in the rock outcrops. This highlight of the Geo-Adventure Tour along the B 236 also offers some action: part of the rock face is a popular climbing spot in the Hochsauerland. Discover this impressive natural wonder!
