    Hiking

    Tiny scramble down to the small cave with a collapsed ceiling. Beautiful play of light and shadow in the sun with a wonderful view.

    Hiking

    The Querkelshöhle is a small but interesting destination on the Staffelberg. Access requires a bit of scrambling and surefootedness, but can be managed well with appropriate caution.

    In return, there is an exciting little cave that provides a beautiful impression of the special rock landscape around the Staffelberg. Not a large cave system, but a worthwhile detour precisely because of its somewhat hidden location.

    Note: Access is not suitable for everyone. The rocky terrain can be slippery when wet – sturdy footwear and surefootedness are recommended.

    Hiking

    The small cave below the summit should be seen. There is also a path past her that leads into the valley. For sure-footed people.
