The large Mariengrotte is a very 😀 beautiful, lovingly designed and maintained facility in the Bächlesgrund and is one of the highlights on the “Seven Grottoes Trail”

There is a very well-kept and beautiful grotto dedicated to the Virgin Mary, right on the path from Sommerkahl up to the "Engländer". Here you can also linger for a moment and take a break.

At the Mariengrotte there is a waterfall.
