Rock Outcrop in Hungary
The Kőszeg Mountains form a ridge in a north to south direction. The tributaries of the Gyöngyös River created a system of valleys of west to east alignment. The interfluves between these valleys form secondary ridges with steep walls and locally even canyon-like morphology
The southern valley sides, built of greenschists and calcareous phyllite, show benches alternating with cliffs. On the interfluvial ridges spectacular rock formations are found, including the Kalapos-kő (Hat Rock, the name indicating its shape, widening upwards) on the high ridge stretching southwards from the Sötét Valley.
