Sea of Stones, Szentbékkálla, Geological formation in Szentbékkálla, Hungary
Large sandstone blocks scattered across a wooded area create a distinctive rock formation spanning several hectares in the Káli Basin.
The rocks originated from sand deposits of the ancient Pannonian Sea, which were cemented together by silica-rich solutions millions of years ago.
The Kelemen Stone, a massive balanced rock formation within the site, has become a popular destination for visitors to test its movement capabilities.
The rock formation is accessible through marked hiking trails from Szentbékkálla village, with designated parking areas and educational nature path signs.
The surface of these stone blocks features distinctive patterns and channels created by plant-based acids and wind-driven sand erosion over time.
