Best Hikes to Fuchsbau Cave (Teufelsmauer)

Tips

  • "The" Fuchsbau "is an artificial, accessible, cellar-like cavity in the area of the Teufelsmauer. It is located directly on the roadside east of the thunderstorm grotto. The small cave was created in 1934 as a so-called "emergency work" by the unemployed as a hiking destination. In bad weather, hikers can use the burrow as a shelter.
    You get into the burrow through a narrow entrance. A spiral staircase leads into the depths, where a narrow corridor connects. The cave offers space for several people inside. There is a bench with a panoramic window opposite, which allows a less spectacular view of the forest.

    The name for the artificial cavity was borrowed from the hunter's language. The name refers to the construction of the red foxes with access tunnel (tube) and living space (boiler). Only the escape tubes common with wild animals are missing in the man-made "burrow". The red fox burrows do not have such a beautiful window in the living room ”👹🤠

  • You almost walk past, but that would be a shame.
    Rounder climb through the cheeks and looking through the window. A cool😎👍

  • A shelter built in 1934 for hikers, a beautiful little hell with a small area that can accommodate about 4 people, ideal for picnics with a good view. Big people should bow their heads. 😎😉
