Hiking

A small staircase leads down into the cave. Several benches are in front of it to rest. You need a flashlight to go inside the cave.

The ice hole, better known as a goat hole or because of its shape also as a goat tail cave, is a typical crevice cave that is often found in karst landscapes.
