Fondry des Chiens (1)
Back home again from holiday with a set of new pictures.
Today I start with a small series of the ‘Fondry des Chiens’.
***
The ‘Fondry des Chiens’ are vegetated open air limestone caves that have spectacular twisting abysses dotted across a giant deeply incised plateau full of colossal boulders.
The huge pits in these chalk rocks, that have a dept till 20 meters, were made by water during millions of years.
These open air caves are a place of great geological interest and a very unique masterpiece of Mother Nature in Belgium.
Location : Nismes (Belgium)

very primeval and ruggedly beautiful looking! those cumbersome chunks of rock – very impressive! signs of prehistoric human existence inside those pit caves, i wonder? or weren't they used by "us" at all? "des chiens" sounds promising. visions of stone age people taming wolf cubs enter my brain… ; )) looks like a great place to explore, a great territory to hike in! greetings, sabine.Hans-Reiner Bohn 19/08/2015 9:06

Es ist die Macht des Wassers die diese Formationen schuf - eine sehr interessante Landschaft die Du bestens Abgelichtet hast.LG Jörg
