Tips from the Community

Dirk Rüger
July 13, 2025, Steinbruch am Steinberg

⛏️ Old quarry on the Steinberg – a silent testament to the past Tucked away on the slopes of the Steinberg lies this abandoned quarry – today a mysterious place where nature and history meet. The rock faces, overgrown with moss, ferns, and young greenery, tell the story of the hard work of past generations. Tip: A short detour is worthwhile – especially for nature lovers and photographers looking for special motifs.

A narrow, rooted path winds its way directly along the former border – a quiet, almost mystical section of the Preußensteig Trail. Light breaks through the dense canopy of leaves, while the old border marker on the tree silently tells of the past. 💡 Tip: If you look closely, you'll still discover traces of old border markers along the path – perfect for little discoveries along the way.

📍 Preußensteig Trail near Kusel Quiet, soft, and green: Here, the path leads along a narrow trail through dense, vibrant forest. The ground is springy, the light flickers through the leaves, and the sounds fade. One of those sections where you're completely in the moment. 💡 Tip: Just slow down and enjoy – it's pleasantly cool here, especially on warm days. If you start early, you'll often hear only the chirping of birds and your own footsteps.

The quarry is located a little off the Preußensteig trail. A detour is definitely worth it
