Description
Bergarten er mørk Hovinsandsten som er veldig lik den i Horg Kultursti (Nr.1653608), men i denne fins svovelkiskrystaller på inntil 3 mm. Bruddet er lite, det er 20-30 m i diameter og dekker et areal på ca. 100 m2. I bakkant er bruddveggen 4-5 m høy.
Location
Bruddet ligger like vest for Lundalsveien 2,7 km fra E6. Det er helt nedgrodd av løvskog og ville vært nærmest umulig å finne uten lokal bistand.
