Description by the author

In Engelmanshoven fungeert een holle weg als een teletijdmachine, die je miljoenen jaren terugvoert. Toen lag Zuid-Limburg aan de rand van een zee, waar het krioelde van sponsen en andere zeedieren. Hun overblijfselen stapelden zich op de bodem op en
werden door andere lagen samengedrukt tot kalksteen. In de zogenaamde ‘geologische
wand aan de zuidhelling’ spot je een zachte en poreuze kiezelkalksteen die geologen de
‘Tuffeau van Lincent’ doopten. De onderste laag van de wand in het bos bestaat uit het
kleverige ‘Zand van Grimmertingen’ met glimmende mineralen. Bovenaan zie je het
fijnere, bleke ‘Zand van Neerrepen’.
