Natural wonders
Elephant Rock, Eagle’s Rock, the Skull, and the Wave are just a few of the extraordinary rock formations at Wüstenquell Conservation Farm.
The incredible granite sculptures created by nature are aged at about 550 million years, and develop in areas where water and humidity has carved into the rock surface, loosening crystalline grains of the granite structure.
Once formed, these formations develop into impressive arches and caverns of several cubic meters. The second weathering factor at Wüstenquell Conservation Farm is wind corrosion, the abrasive action of solid materials like silica transported by the wind against the hard granite surface.
Renovations underway
