Top 4 Caves ビシュヴァイアーでの

Closed due to danger of collapse. Only possible to catch a glimpse

You can still see the old tunnel entrance, but entry is prohibited (danger of falling rocks).

The Sagenweg is an extraordinarily beautifully designed and signposted hiking attraction - there are more than enough places to take a break and enjoy the view along the way.

In summer the entrance is probably covered by grass; inside you can see an extension to the left

"The ore mine is a mysterious place, which received its literary testimony with the story of the dwarfs from the Gernsberg. The tunnel in this area of the Gernsberg is one of the attempts to use the ore deposits economically. Ore deposits were found throughout the Murg Valley in earlier centuries exploited. From old stories it has been handed down that here is the entrance to an underground palace of the little meerkats, who guard a large treasure of gold and silver inside the Gernsberg. The stories of the dwarfs who live here have been handed down in many different versions. A midwife was once paid by the dwarves with a thaler, which ensured that she never ran out of money. To this day, the meerkats do a great job and guard their gold and silver treasure like the apple of their eye. It is reported that dwarfs from the Gernsberg have been sighted by hikers in this area, but the entrance to their palace will probably remain hidden forever." https://www.gernsbach.de/sagenweg/erzgrube.html
