More interesting than the column cave C 44 itself is the tree whose roots cover the cave entrance. The trunk first grows downwards and then turns 180 degrees upwards. According to legend, an underground path has led from the cave to the castle of Niesten. The way to and from the cave is not marked, rarely committed and hard to find without gps!
