Stone caveFun for children. The stone cave on the way to the ladder to heaven is the first project of the Schrems Nature Park Association chairman Martin Speychal. In keeping with the region, it is built from solid Schrems granite and painted inside with Stone Age images. A low, S-shaped passage leads through the cave. [unterwasserreich.at]

The path leads through a jungle-like area into the wild and romantic Dachsengraben to the bottom of the ditch. According to legend, the notorious robber chief Grasel lived in a cave hidden in a group of granite along the path. He was certainly no noble fellow and no Robin Hood, as he liked to commit his robberies in simpler houses. By the time he died, Grasel had committed around 200 crimes in the Waldviertel. A wooden club path leads through a small swamp to the isolated Richterteich.

You can walk through this "stone igloo", but don't hit your head!

Interesting rock formation below the summit of the Mandelstein.

Meat bench at Mandelstein On the southern slope of the Mandelstein, in the forest, to the left of the road to the Mandelstein, there are large pieces of rock that the locals call “the meat bank”. These rocks form a dark cave with a narrow entrance. A poacher once had the meat of those he killed here. Animals and his rifle kept. He is also said to have hidden his money and jewelry here. Once a woman from nearby Göllitz in Bohemia was on her way to church in Harbach with her child. She had often heard that there was money hidden in the “meat bank”. She decided to go and take a look. When she came to the rock, she placed the child on a stone and crawled into the cave. She actually found the hiding place, took the money and the jewelry and wanted to move on quickly with the child. But, oh horror! The child was lying under a large stone. While she was looking for the money and jewelry, a large stone rolled towards the child and trapped him in a small cave. All attempts to roll the stone away from the child were unsuccessful. The woman ran crying. to the priest and told him everything. He advised her to go home, pray diligently for the child and next year, on the same day, go to the “meat bank” and put back the money and jewelry she had taken. The woman promised and went home sadly. She was already waiting with longing. the day next year. Early in the morning she rushed to the “meat bank” with gold and jewelry, crawled in and put everything back where she had taken everything from. When she came out of the cave, she saw the child's stone lifting itself to the side. Beaming with joy, she ran to her child, who was still alive, and asked him if he was hungry. The child said that a woman dressed in white always brought milk and bread and berries to eat. Overjoyed, the woman went home with her child. (Source: naturpfad.at)
