Continuing south, we soon reached today's geotope. 14. Former Großmaulburg gravel pit near Vilsbiburg > significant “The sediments exposed in the former gravel pit are placed in the Moldanubian Series of the Upper Upper Freshwater Molasse. The pit is completely overgrown except for two smaller outcrops. Previously, on the former mining wall, cylindrical cavities in the sediment could be seen in diagonally layered sands (leading to feldspar and biotite, with iron hydroxide impregnations), which indicated embedded driftwood. Leaf flora was found in clay lenses” (Environmental Atlas of Bavaria)

In 2013, the ditch along the road was renatured by the Vilsbiburg public utility company. The natural planting of willows and alders as well as the sowing of native grasses and flowers gave the stream back its original character.
