Hiking

The tunnel is occasionally used in the summer for screenings of movies. The tunnel is curved over the entire route. The tracks and signal systems have since been removed. For photographers, the tunnel offers a very interesting backdrop. The tunnel has since been expanded as part of the Nordbahn route as a cycle and footpath and can be used day and night with LED lighting.
