Great view of the Kaolingrube with a wonderful play of colors. A little break for photos, or simply enjoy the view, definitely worth it here.

Hiking

In the Hirschau - Schnaittenbach district, extensive kaolin deposits shape the landscape. In the Triassic era about 250 million years ago, rivers deposited sands of the "Middle Buntsandsteins" rich in feldspar. The feldspars weathered over time into the clay mineral kaolinite. The originally reddish stone was also bleached.
