    Hiking

    About in the middle of the railway tunnel is the entrance to the Kingdom of Heaven on the southern side. Although the entrance is not locked, entering the cave is not permitted. For safety reasons, this is also not advisable, as due to natural processes, larger chunks of rock are repeatedly detached from the vaulted ceiling.
    For more information see Wikipedia: Himmelreichhöhle.htm

    Hiking

    I have no idea, I sat right over it. Since the train goes through the tunnel with the cave entrance, I think it is very dangerous to go in there
