I didn't know about it until today, but it exists. Near the youth camp site on the other side of the Kauerbach. There is already a love canyon!

The tunnel mouth is about 50m from the path of the dream loop (forest path) away above the slope behind the fenced garden plots on a forgotten and overgrown farm road. After the low entrance, you come across a rusty ladder after 10 meters and only looking back reveals that the entrance was probably earlier. Then it gets exciting, because it's a bit slippery on a slope 15 meters further and a good 5 meters down(!). If you are at the bottom, turn left at right angles. This level leads through several excavation rooms, which are wide but not high, a good 70 meters far into a dome that is also low, from which tunnels lead off on both sides. But you can also go straight ahead 60 meters, then you would have to go through knee-deep water for a good 20 meters and then you might have to go further. The tunnel to the right leads 50 meters to a cathedral and then another 50 meters further. The left tunnel ends after about 45 meters. So you have a lot to do!

Hidden tunnel mouth, one of several in the region. Exciting.

The former mining activity is clearly visible at a slate heap by the roadside. To the right and above the heap is a side tunnel leading into the mountain (therefore not directly visible from the path). This tunnel extends approximately 10 meters into the mountain before reaching a sluice gate with two steel doors. Passing through these doors, one enters a large mining chamber. This tunnel was likely used as a blasting chamber. A few meters further to the right, i.e., to the south, is another tunnel that forks at a right angle after a few meters. The right branch ends after a few meters, while the left branch continues for at least 50 meters further into the mountain and then opens into a large mining chamber where spoil heaps have been piled up.

The tunnel goes in almost 50 meters, and shortly before the end a shaft goes down but it doesn't go any further.

I walked past it a whopping 55 times before, on the 56th attempt and with minimal February vegetation, I noticed the gate off the path. The tunnel entrance is very low and secured with a padlock. Exploration 11/22: Actually, only the entrance is a bit low. After that, it's easy to descend 60 meters into the mountain, slightly crouching. After 40 meters, a small mining chamber branches off to the left, followed by a shaft leading vertically down about 10 meters. Roughly estimated, it's about 6 meters. With an opening of about 1x1 meters, a misstep would be impossible to catch and could cause significant damage. It's quite possible that there's a side branch in the remaining 10 meters, and there's definitely a tunnel leading off to the side at the bottom of the shaft. This largely unknown tunnel is one of the sites of the Wellmich-Werlau vein train, which includes, for example, the Werlau shaft https://www.komoot.de/highlight/1371659, the Gustav shaft https://www.komoot.de/highlight/3100074 and the Camilla mine https://www.komoot.de/highlight/1099786 and which ends not far from the Eid mine on the Geierberg near Alterkülz https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grube_Eid.
