Tips

The "Fuchsenloch" whose wild-romantic environment is characterized by a small gorge, which was once a former quarry. Striking is the barred bricked entrance of a cellar, which the brewery Elflein once used as a beer cellar. To the delight of the conservationists, BN district chairman Anton Reinhardt discovered that bats, such as the great mouse ear, the Bechstein bat, the brown long-eared mouse and the pug-billed bat, now use the damp cellar as winter quarters.

The trail 1 leads past there. So that one finds it also up to the cave the forest with barrier tape was marked. (Stand 9/17).

The small ravine and the way to the Fuchsenlochhöhle is not suitable in wet weather because very vermoost and slippery. Sturdy footwear required. But very beautiful.

During my visit in May 2019, the entire entrance to the cave was flooded. Even now, the path is marked with a red-white band, which should be followed, as Birgit describes it. Otherwise, you run the risk of not finding the cave, because sometimes no way is recognizable.
