The cave trail is one of the themed trails in the Bergisches Hiking Region. In 2019, after 20 years of searching, researchers found an entrance to a cave that they suspected was in Mühlenberg near Ründeroth. In this cave, called the "Windhole", they discovered a cave system of incredible dimensions, crystals, limestone formations and impressive cavities that no one had ever entered before. At more than 8,000 m, the "Windloch" is the largest cave in North Rhine-Westphalia and is therefore one of the top 10 in Germany.

On this cave trail, foray no. 14, which opened in 2020, you can get to know the work of speleologists using the information boards and audio stations. The cave is not open to the public.
