    Hiking

    The glacial potholes were formed during the Ice Age. An information board explains the process of creation.
    We were here in mid-June 2023 and unfortunately the holes were still filled with water. Later in the summer they are said to have dried up and it is said that you can then use ladders to descend into the 8-15m deep glacial potholes. Only then can you judge the depth. Nevertheless, the trip was also so interesting!
    At the parking lot there is a notice that you have to pay a voluntary entry fee of €7 per person. can pay via app.

    Hiking

    Unfortunately, as of 2026, the maintenance has ceased, as the local villagers no longer have resources to continue upkeep.

    Therefore, the giant’s kettles are gradually filling with water and debris, and the ladders are becoming unsafe.

    The site can still be visited, but at your own risk.
