Blaue Kuppe Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

The blue crest is an elevation near Eschwege, which was created from solidified lava. There is a circular route around the Blaue Kuppe, which provides interesting insights into the three cauldrons that were created during the basalt mining. The site is now a nature reserve.
