Map of both excursion areas between the Harz Mountains and the Thuringian Forest. A) Northern and eastern Harz foreland between Braunschweig and Halle (Saale) modified after SZURLIES et al. (2003). Distribution of salt domes and salt pillows modified after WALTER (1995). Excursion points within the Calvörde Formation (suC), Bernburg Formation (suB) as well as outcrops in both formations (suC/suB) are recorded. The northern areas are bounded by Variscan bedrock units of the Flechtinger-Roßlauer Scholle in the northeast and the Harz Mountains in the south. The NNE-running Eichsfeld-Altmark swell is drawn schematically. Line A-B marks location of geological cross-section in Fig. 5. B) Map of the southeastern Thuringian Basin between Erfurt and Gera modified after PUFF (1994), SEIDEL et al. (2002), RAPPSILBER (2003) and SEIDEL (2003).

We present a geological field guidebook where important and actual outcrops of the Lower Buntsandstein (Lower Triassic) in Central Germany are documented. It is mainly written for geoscientists interested in sedimentary geology. The field guide documents the sedimentary succession of the Lower Buntsandstein Subgroup (Calvörde and Bernburg formation...
