    Tips

    In the Ulrichstein dolomite rock directly next to the hiking trail there is a crevice cave with two entrances. Through the larger northern entrance you get in upright for about 25 m. At the end a narrow, smaller corridor branches off almost at right angles. Following this you reach the second entrance after about 15 m.
    The name is derived from a Feme court that is said to have taken place on the Ulrichstein in earlier times.

      After a few meters, you're out again. You can't get lost either 😉

        Totally genius! Those who are not claustrophobic and narrow enough can "shorten" the hiking trail through this cave
