=== ''Eschbacher Klippen'' === [[Image:Eschbacher-Klippen-Dezember-2016.jpg|thumb|Eschbacher Klippen]] At the north end of Eschbach stands a group of [[cliff]]s up to 12 m high and made of [[quartz]]. The cliff wall is the visible part of a roughly six-kilometre-long quartz seam which continues slantwise across the Usa Valley to the Wormstein in Usingen town forest. From a [[Geology|geological]] standpoint, it is an oblique upthrow (fault with one side thrust up higher than the other) formed by faulting in the mountain range. The erosion-resistant quartz has lasted to this day and can be seen in many places in the Taunus, but nowhere is it more spectacular than here. Climbers use the steeper walls for training.
