Top 10 Caves 라이텐부흐 주변

The short detour from the main trail is worthwhile. An exciting, even accessible, small cave awaits. However, extra caution is advised on both the approach and descent in wet conditions! A few thresholds are definitely missing, especially at the steep entrance on bare earth (as of May 2025).

‼️Bat winter quarters‼️ Please follow the entry ban between October and the end of March to protect the animals! If bats are woken during hibernation, they use up excessive energy reserves and may starve. Flying out and finding food is only possible again in spring!

location as already described.

Great rock formation right on the bike path, there is a large rock gate next to a hall cave to admire. Should you look at.

The wooden Kling is a chain of rock that was separated by the construction of the railway. Only the front part with the rock gate and cave can be admired via the Altmühltal cycle path, the other rocks of the wooden Kling can be reached if you drive over the tracks at the barrier in Hagenacker and then immediately afterwards turn right up the path along the tracks, then not on the Panoramaweg but always along the tracks. There is the backwater of the Altmühl, also created during the construction of the railway line. There you go directly to the actual wooden Kling. However, in the summer often does not happen too high the grass with nettles.

There are two rock cellars. The upper one is closed and serves as bat quarters. The lower one is open and leads surprisingly far in. We had two bats that were still hibernating. Must have moved into the wrong quarters 😉. We were quiet and were right back out when we spotted them. The basement is worth seeing.

This is the tunnel that has now been used by some bat species.
