    At the "Stone Woman" is this small cave. Here is also a starting place for paragliders.

      The cave is about 5 m deep and 4 m high and open to the east, very similar to the "sacrificial cave" on Staffelberg. It is easily accessible from above for children to look into.

      Ad on for the druid fans and esotericists: A sacrificial stone (altar) is also positioned in front of the entrance. :-)

        The cave must have been inhabited by a hermit.
