The Karlshöhle is one of the two large cave-like washouts that were formed due to the erosive action of the Schwarzach. It is one of the highlights on the way through the gorge, which has been a nature reserve since 1936.

The path now leads to the Karlshöhle. Through a low passage you reach a wooden staircase into the half-cave
