Kammerlöcher, Rock formations in Ilm-Kreis, Germany
The Kammerlöcher consists of a series of rock walls and cliffs along the Zahme Gera valley between Angelroda and Geraberg.
The formation of Kammerlöcher occurred during the Saxonian mountain formation 140 million years ago when the Thuringian Forest rose from an ancient sea.
Local folklore tells of dwarfs inhabiting the small caves within the Kammerlöcher, a tale recorded by Ludwig Bechstein in the 19th century.
Visitors can access the site through multiple hiking routes, including the 6.77-kilometer Rammler's Ruh trail from Angelroda, which takes about two hours.
The rock formations reach heights of 30 meters above the Zahme Gera river, with 20-meter-wide crevices revealing different geological layers.
