    You wander unsuspectingly between the two Hansgörgels and don't think anything bad about a hole next to a tree...and then this hole has no bottom.
    Can someone contribute the history of the hole?
    I don't want to get stuck down there, so I stayed upstairs.

      On the southern slope there is a small cave called the Hansgörglschacht, Teufelsloch or Räuberloch. The cave is registered as D 1 in the Franconian Alb cave register (HFA). The cave is a shaft cave. The entrance is right next to a tree.

        At the Großer Hansgörgel, the summit of which we reach after around 9km, there is a small cave called Hansgörgelschacht, also known as the Devil's Hole or Robber's Cave, on a slope. It goes directly into the ground next to a tree.
