Steinbornshohl, Natural monument and sunken lane in Groß-Umstadt, Germany

The Steinbornshohl stretches across 800 meters through the landscape, reaching depths of 14 meters in its steep lower section near Groß-Umstadt.

The path has functioned as a connection route since Roman times, linking to major roads along the Odenwald ridge through the Hesse region.

Local residents refer to this natural formation as Schdammbertshoul, reflecting the regional dialect and its integration into community identity.

Due to safety concerns regarding dead and dying trees, the site currently operates under restricted access following assessment by certified inspectors.

The structure contains former vaulted cellars of the Schwanenbrauerei at its lower end, while lizards and slowworms inhabit its slopes.
