    If you are looking for some relief from the steep climb, the cool stone bench in the Bruderhöhle is the ideal place for it.

      The cave probably got its name from a monk who lived there around 1480 as a hermit.

        As you can see, quite a few people have already made their fires here. Legal? No idea, but a good shelter (which you can also brag about *ggg*) in any case!

        Definitely make the descent as well, as you can still see a (collapsed) passage further down.
