Tips
The Bear Cave is the exit after taking a tour of the Maximilian Grotto. You can also climb down the stairs into the bear cave, but these end at an iron door.

When the Maximilian Grotto is closed, you should definitely go here. It is the actual exit of the grotto, you can easily connect it to the wind hole. When you go in you can also see the stairs and the lighting.

The exit of the tour through the grotto… light, steps and a door clearly indicate it… but otherwise a nice cave
