    THE WAY IS BLOCKED! (As of March 20, 2021)
    Unfortunately, the canyon paths north of the cave are blocked by fallen trees, some of them are man high over several meters and even with good equipment and thick gloves, I could only get through with difficulty or not at all.

      The 5-minute cave as the Swiss say is really worth seeing ... The ice for the beer used to be cooled here ... Make sure you take your pocket lamps with you ...

        A small trail leads around the sandstone cave, which is part of an educational forest trail. This first goes up a bit steeply and then turns on the hilltop to the west into dense forest. Suddenly you find yourself in a small ravine. It's going downhill and suddenly it's very warm and extremely humid. Large ferns grow on the slopes to the right and left. Uprooted trees are criss-crossed. Everything is covered with moss. It's like a little world of its own here, a real little jungle, a bit mystical and just fantastic!
