Hiking

In the vicinity of the former Sodenberg basalt quarry, nature has brought back a lot. However, the tunnel system "in the middle of the landscape" makes it clear that the landscape here has been thoroughly transformed by human hands. It's also somehow exciting to pass through the tunnel like an entrance gate and then after a few meters stand in front of the gigantic crater.
