The 10m-deep karst cave cannot be entered without climbing equipment!

The name "Tüfelschuchi" (Tüfelschuchi) derives from a phenomenon that occurs on cold winter days. When temperatures outside remain below zero, the ground remains at 8 degrees Celsius. Since the air in the crack or in the ground is warmer than outside, the warm air rises and begins to steam. People used to think this was the devil's house and his cooking! This phenomenon can be observed not only here, but in many other places on cold winter days in the Jura. 8 degrees Celsius is the annual average and constant in the Jura caves.
