    Hiking

    The official hiking trail in the Großer Zschand ends at the Hickel Gorge and via the gorges you reach the Hickel Cave and the Thorwalder Walls.

    Hiking

    The easiest access to the Hickel Cave from the Großer Zschandweg. It is moderate and well developed slightly uphill.

    Hiking

    Very nice to hike, but you can clearly see the tree damage caused by the bark beetle.
