Tato earthcache Vas zavede do unikatni geologicke a archeologicke lokality.


Stranska skala se stala v roce 1978 narodni prirodni pamatkou predevsim proto, ze se jedna o vyznamne paleontologicke a archeologicke naleziste. Skalni utvar je budovan morskymi sedimenty stari svrchni jury (malmu). Muzeme zde videt krasove jevy - podzemni prostory a prirodni jeskyne. Z nich je nejznamejsi Jezerni jeskyne, ktera jeste se tremi nepojmenovanymi jeskynemi tvori jeskynni system Stranske skaly. Dale je tato lokalita bohata cetnymi nalezy zkamenelin morskych zivocichu i kosternich pozustatku ctvrtohornich zivocichu. Proslavila se i nalezy paleolitickeho a neolitickeho osidleni. Cetne nalezy dokazuji prvni pouziti ohne ve stredni Evrope.

Ve spodni casti profilu Stranske skaly najdeme svetle koralove vapence s rohovci, vyse vystupuji vapence tvorene z clanku lilijic – vapence krinoidove. V nejvyssi casti vystupuji opet vapence s vlozkami rohovcu. Vapence jurskeho stari jsou zde velmi bohate na fosilie. Byli zde popsani dirkovci, mechovky, lilijce, jezovky, korali, ramenozci a mekkysi ( mlzi, hlavonozci – amoniti a belemniti). Cetne kosterni nalezy ptaku,savcu i hadu byly nalezeny v jeskynnich sedimentech a sutovych kuzelech.

Po strance botanicke patri lokalita k nejzajimavejsim a floristicky nejbohatsim na uzemi mesta Brna. Ma vyrazne xerotermni charakter. Nasvedcuje tomu pritomnost travino-bylinnych spolecenstev stepniho charakteru a rada teplomilnych rostlin a zivocichu. V minulosti byl na tomto miste zaznamenan vyskyt 578 druhu rostlin!
