    Super beautiful little cave in the gypsum karst landscape of the southern Harz. When the sun is shining properly, the water of the grotto lake glows beautifully and intensely! But even without direct sunlight, you can see how turquoise the water actually is. The path down to the cave leads down wooden steps to the right of the information boards. Be careful, it gets cold here! At the information boards you will find the stamp box for special stamp no. 15 for the "Karstwanderweg Südharz" booklet of the Harzer Wandernadel. A real insider tip!

        You climb down a staircase to the karst gypsum cave, whose water grotto currently has a wonderfully Turkish shimmer. A wonderful natural monument, this place seems almost mystical
