Pancake Rocks at Dolomite Point, Punakaiki, are one of the most famous features of Paparoa National Park on the West Coast of NZ's South Island. A 50m thick sheet of Oligocene limestone is responsible for the distinctive topographic features in the park. The *Pancakes" are made up of resistant bands of limestone separated by thin, soft and mud-rich layers which have been eroded away by wind and water. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paparoa_National_Park Die Pancake Rocks am Dolomite Point in Punakaiki sind Teil des Paparoa Nationalparks an der Westküste der neuseeländischen Südinsel. Eine 50m mächtige Kalksteinschicht aus dem Oligozän prägt die Landschaft des Nationalparks. Die "Pancakes" bestehen aus Schichten widerstandsfähigen Kalksteins, zwischen denen weicheres Material eingelagert ist, das von Wind und Wasser wegerodiert wurde.
