    Wind hole or re-hole. Attention! Risk of falling! This small cave was named after farmer Wiedel, whose cow plunged into the hole and had to be slaughtered below. The cave with parallel passages and shaft-like double entry leads up to 14m in depth and reaches a length of 70m.

      Never enter the ramp unsecured, otherwise you will end up like the Wiedel cow!

        This is a shaft cave. Never approach without safety equipment! Rope and shaft equipment required.
