A wolf pit is a pit for catching wolves, about three to five meters deep, usually lined with stones. Live bait, such as a sheep, piglet or goose, was brought into the pit. The pit was covered with straw. Wolves were attracted by the sounds of the animals in the pit.

At the Col du Wolfsgrube you will find several benches, a shelter and a fountain, as well as an information board on how such places got their name

Very nice place to rest after a hard climb. Before continuing the ascent to the lake of the balloon (for example)
