The path up to the cave is steep and requires sure-footedness (from the road, not from the chapel). Nevertheless, it is very worthwhile!
A few meters in front of the cave there is also a great vantage point.

The Benedictus Cave, also known as the Hermit Cave, is a natural through cave. The crossing is particularly nice up from the back path (a bit overgrown and steep) and then back down to the temple.

A few meters above the cave there is a large cross on a viewing platform.

A somewhat hidden cave. Access is signposted approx. 300 m from the St. Maurus chapel. This way is good to go. At the top there is also a lookout point with a cross.

The path is only for very sure-footed hikers!
