    Hiking

    The way up here is a little steeper, but it's worth it. There are 2 rock openings. If you go past the hut on the left you will get to the giant gate. Both rock openings are listed in the list of caves in the Franconian Jura under cadastral numbers A 197a "front door" and A 197b "giant gate".

    When you go through the gate there are two benches behind.
