    Hiking

    The mighty rock hall of the Geiskirche, open on two sides, with the massive rock pillar is located on hiking trail 3 to the Easter cave. The dimensions of this large cave are remarkable with a length of 20 m, a width of 8 to 13 m and a height of up to 3.50 m. It is no coincidence that this hall-like cave was used as a shelter for animals and also for parties. Because of the ice formation, a visit to the wide-open cave is particularly attractive even in winter.

    There is a fireplace inside. A perfect shelter, even for a few more people.
