Wen Valley, Dry valley in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
The Wen Valley extends northwest of Steinheim am Albuch, featuring prominent limestone formations named after animals like Sphinx and Hippopotamus.
The geological processes that formed Wen Valley date back millions of years when water erosion carved through the limestone of Schwäbische Alb.
The valley serves as an educational site where visitors learn about local geology through information boards placed along designated walking paths.
Since 2009, activities including cross golf, parkour, and bouldering remain prohibited due to environmental protection measures related to Essingen Windpark.
The valley contains distinctive limestone rock formations that rise from the ground, creating natural sculptures against the German landscape.
