Höhle am Hoeling

A large cave is cut into the approximately 200 m long, 25 m high quarry wall (dimensions about 15 m wide, 20 m deep, 10 -15 m high). On the floor of the cave lies a roughly 1.5 -2 m high mound of collapse material (ceiling collapse). The quarry is heavily overgrown in the eastern part, and overall slightly littered.

In the quarry and in the cave, bedded Zechstein limestones (Straßfurt sequence or z2) are exposed. The cave was fenced off (steel mats and barbed wire); the barrier has meanwhile been cut through several times. Fire pits and old sleeping bags bear witness to occasional overnight visitors. There are also several fire pits in the western part of the quarry.
