노이엔소거 숲 주변 최고의 폭포 하이킹 & 워킹 코스

The Ebnether Rock Gate is, so to speak, the "photogenic centerpiece" of the rock labyrinth. It is an imposing natural archway, formed by the erosion and drifting apart of massive sandstone blocks. The gate is so high and wide that adults can comfortably walk through it upright. The massive walls consist of the Rhaetian-Lias sandstone typical of the region. It is a prime example of joint formation. Over millennia, the rock fissures have widened due to weathering, leaving behind this arch-like opening.

The Teufelsgraben footbridge no longer exists.

Nice lounger with a view of the castle 🏰

In addition to the Jacob's Cave, the rock formations also include the Franzenshöhle (Franzen's Cave). According to a story, two robbers named after them hid there in the 16th century. In fact, the caves were probably named after the lords of the Ebneth castle: Franz Paul Christoph (1750-1823) and Jakob Wolfgang (1751-1817) von Seckendorff-Arberdar.

If you take the upper Gottesgarten circular trail, marked number 1, the rock gate is just a few steps away and easily accessible. It's set as a highlight further down here. If you take the path, you have to climb steeply.

Very nice trails

Old footbridge over the Teufelsgraben

This lounger is highly recommended.
