Top 10 Caves 발러샤임 주변

Beautiful!! A few experienced climbers went up the steep wall

I would recommend just reading the information board and not climbing up to the rock with the small caves. You can catch a glimpse of the barred cave entrances, but that's all.

The Gerolsteiner Dolomiten nature reserve is located in the Vulkaneifel district in Rhineland-Palatinate in the area of the town of Gerolstein and the municipality of Pelm. The area, which consists of two parts, extends north of the main town of Gerolstein on both sides of the L 29 state road. You can also climb here.

The Hohl-Ley Caves, the gateway to the underworld, as the informative sign on site calls these bat caves and informs about the biodiversity that is found there. The climb is steep, and the cave entrances have a grille to protect the animals. Still, it's worth taking a look inside.

"One day we throw off the "light" rucksacks and climb a steep path, through fields of wild garlic in bloom, up the slope to the Hohl-Ley cave; called "Gateway to the Underworld" because there are many animals in the grotto system, quite a few are named bat species, find sanctuary.” https://www.komoot.de/tour/780244919

Well accessible cave. It is very good to see how the millstones were worked out. A good headlamp is recommended so that your hands are free to take pictures. I personally found the cell phone camera too dark

Since there is practically no light in these caves, there are hardly any green plants to be found inside. Only a few mosses and lichens limit their growth to the entrance area. The caves go about 12 meters into the mountain, but are not accessible to visitors.
