    A very nice hike, but way too crowded on the weekend.

    The elephant caves are located directly at the Urach waterfall, in the large terrace formed by the waterfall - on the ascent to the high meadow at the last hairpin bend about 30 m to the left, above the path (fenced nature reserve); the small elephant cave is in the upper third of the steep wall.

    directly at the Uracher waterfall, in the large terrace formed by the waterfall - when climbing to the Hochwiese at the last bend about 30 m to the left, above the path (fenced nature reserve); the small elephant cave is in the upper third of the steep wall; 580 or 585 m above sea level
    Size: Large elephant cave 70 m long, entrance height 3 m, entrance width 8 m (two-story); Small elephant cave 42 m long, two entrances with 7 or 5 m entrance height and 8 or 5 m entrance width. 👍🙃🙂
