Top 11 Caves シュトゥツァーバッハでの

Even if the ascent is not possible in winter, the view from below also offers good views and comfortable benches for a break

The burnt out stone at Oberhof is an artificial breakthrough through the rock. It was important for the Lütsche Flößgraben when it was built. The alternation of fire and ice-cold water made the stone brittle and could be worked with mining tools. A 38 m long, 2.3 m high and 2.2 m wide tunnel was created. If you follow the path further you come to the “Hohen Stein” with a wonderful view. The path back to Oberhof leads past the upper Sieglitzteich.

Not to be expected from the valley. Still a little insider tip

Nicely prepared tunnel entrance

A station on the Ringberg Mining Trail.

Below it goes to the cave, which is rather unspectacular and via the stairs directly to the Great Hermannsfelsen with a beautiful view

Here below the Ringberg you can find the butter well and its world of legends. It is located in a part where mining used to take place.

The tunnel was built by miners in 1704. You can easily walk through it without a lamp. In winter there are wonderful icicles. A nice highlight on the hike.
