The Oberauroff Cave near Idstein is an exciting natural highlight for hikers and cyclists, which can be wonderfully integrated into a tour through the Rheingau-Taunus district.

This resting place is probably one of the most unusual in the Vordertaunus. An unusually large hole in a rock wall immediately catches the eye of every visitor. Those who are brave can also explore this cave a little. Otherwise, two benches with a table await you in front of the cave, where you can linger a little and enjoy your snack.

On the outskirts of Oberauroff there is a small cave with a slightly mystical character.
