Tips
There is an entrance to a cave right next to the path. Where is it going? No idea.

There is no information about the cave - maybe someone will dare to go in 😅

After the easy, but stooped access, the tunnel leads only a few meters with standing height into the mountain. Refreshingly cool on hot days.
Around Kaub, a total of 5 mining sites were combined to form the Viktoria pit, through which the high-quality slate of the "Kauber train" was mined until the late 1950s. The tunnel network covers 30 km, this is probably just an exploratory tunnel.translated by•August 25, 2022
