The Gefrees Hiking Club (FGV Gefrees), in cooperation with the Gefrees Historical Forum, has erected an information panel here, providing details about the royal pearl fishing operations at this location. The small passage was hewn into the rock for this purpose and is accessible to slender and agile individuals.

A lovely spot, even if you're there outside of opening hours. Thanks to the gate, you can see the beginning of the tunnel. There are benches, a fountain, a hut, and a gold panning area all around.

A small side path leads from the main path down to the tunnel. An information panel provides information about the tunnel's origins, dating back to the 18th century. At the upper end, there is a ford through the Ölschnitztal valley, which may be passable when the water level is low.

Here you will find a small, approximately 10 m long rock breakthrough from the old pearl fishery in the Ölschnitz valley. The straight breakthrough is accessible, but adults can only do so in a crouched position. The river-side entrance bears the year 1770. Further information on the historical reference can be found on a new, small information board above the rock tunnel.
