    Tips

    February 13, 2018

    The U-shaped Ramensteinhöhle is slightly below the hiking trail and is about 45 meters long. Because rare field mice overwinter in the cave and during the summer part of the day sleep, an entrance was walled up for their protection. In winter, the second entrance is closed with a grid, but the rest of the year you can explore the small cave on your own. The rock formations on the inside indicate that a river once flowed through the cave.

      The cave is partially accessible. The rear part is blocked by a grating and is kept out of the bats.

          If you're unattended, you can go unusually deep inside. Make sure you take a flashlight with you!
