Boulder garden

A boulder garden or boulder park is an outdoor collection of bed load blocks . Large debris of more than 1 m³ is called boulder .

Exhibitions of this kind have only appeared in the last few decades. They offer the opportunity to visit glacial debris that come to light in the vicinity. In addition to the protection aspect, there is a concern to illustrate geological epochs and their rock formations with the help of an exemplary selection of boulders . Of interest are the information on the transport routes of the bed load during the Ice Ages, which are illustrated on display boards.
