    Tips

    May 21, 2017

    The cave entrance with the door is not far into it, the large cave entrance, however, allows a cave inspection. Not very easy due to slippery soil and only with very good lamps useful. After the descent and the first bend you already lose contact with the outside world, neither light nor sound penetrate. In the light, white, glowing spiders with their nets provide a bit of a scary factor or interest, as they like it.

      The natural monument Frauenhöhle is located north of the Bug Egloffstein.
      The naturally formed karst cave with its three entrances hides in the forest.

        In winter take into account that some animals (bats) hibernate.
