Stone Marker to Obernkirchen Quarry

Highlight • Monument

Here we head north to the Obernkirchen quarry, whose stones have made the place famous beyond the regional borders. Fittingly, the signpost there is itself a stone from the quarry.

Obernkirchen Sandstone Quarry

Highlight • Structure

Super nice old quarry on over 300 meters, mostly well-traveled and there are many branches. Everything with normal equipment to master, many beautiful photo opportunities, unfortunately, the inn Walter at the JBF center has been closed for some time.
