Tips

Hiking

Caution in the vicinity of the large Elbersberger Windloch! There is danger to life, especially if you are traveling with children or dogs. There is neither a warning sign, nor a fence or even a grid! The 30m deep gap in the ground opens up right next to the hiking trail. The wind hole is only visible when you have approached to 1-2 m. Be careful!

Nina E warns for a reason! Risk of falling because it is only in the immediate vicinity that it can be seen that the hole is in the ground and not in a rock wall!

If you go left around the large wind hole along the fallen tree trunk, you come directly to the opening of the small Elbersberger wind hole. Also a very deep shaft.
