January 29, 2022,Sperenberg - Gipsbrüche - Boden Geo Pfad

An easy hike with a small climb to the Gipsberg. And a beautiful view over the waters in Sperenberg. Information boards describe the ground-geo-path. The deepest borehole in the world smells unbearably of sulfur, that was a bit funny. Through forest and field paths, it also gets enchanted and quaint. The area is under nature protection.
