Top 6 Caves ローラウでの

Opposite the Grafenlucke cave is this small nature reserve with some tree carvings. Unfortunately, access is not permitted, as it is private!

The Zwergenloch - on the southern slope of the Hundsheimer Berg - can be reached from the hiking trail via a steep climb in just a few minutes.

The Güntherhöhle can be reached from the tourist trail via a steep climb in a few minutes. The path is also suitable for active dogs.

Up a few steps and then you can take a look at the 2 locked gates!

You can still admire these up close.

To the west of the Zwergelloch lies the most famous cave in the Hundsheim Mountains, the Güntherhöhle with the bone gap, both of which are parts of what was originally a single cave room. For reasons of cave and bat protection, the entrances had to be closed. To the south of the cave, in the so-called bone gap, fossil remains of the woolly rhinoceros were found. It entered science as the “Hundsheim rhinoceros” (Rhinoceros Stephanorhinus hundsheimensis).

Most caves do not have natural exits. The surface of the rock also shows hardly any karst features, which is why the caves were discovered late. An exception is the 17 m deep and 41 m long “Zwerglloch” on the southern slope of the Hundsheimer Berg.

The ascent to the dwarf hole is worthwhile
