Bullenkuhle, Natural sinkhole in Sprakensehl, Germany
The Bullenkuhle sinkhole spans 130 meters in diameter and reaches a depth of 15 meters within a pine forest landscape.
The formation occurred through rock salt dissolution from the ancient Zechstein Sea deposits of the Permian period beneath the ground surface.
The German name Bullenkuhle translates to Bull's Hollow, reflecting the regional terminology for this geological depression in Lower Saxony.
The location features steep slopes between 30 to 60 degrees, with a marsh area of 0.5 hectares at the base of the depression.
The water body contains rare specimens of Dwarf White Water Lily and maintains high acidity with a pH value of 5.0.
