A long time ago there lived a dragon here, so big that when it went to drink in the nidda, the tip of its tail still stayed in the cave.

If you look at the dragon's hole today, you can only come to the conclusion that the dragon looked more like a giant worm, because the hole is approximately 30 to 40 centimeters in diameter.

Hiking

The descent to the Drachenloch is a narrow path and unfortunately not further described. From the information note straight ahead for 50 m and then a slight downward curve to the left and you are at the Drachenloch. Whoever thinks of the dragon and the big hole will unfortunately be disappointed ... it's quite tiny. I don't estimate a 30 cm diameter. But then maybe there were MINI kites too ;-).
