    Hiking

    The Königshöhle (now only one hole) is an original location from the book "Behind the Dark Woods" (ISBN 3-9805273-9-5) - a true story of poachers. You should read the book to find out what happened here. You will also learn a lot about the time of the 1930s and the sensitivities in the region.
