The success of the film "Tatort Falkenlay" inspired the idea of building a concrete replica of the main character, the old Lippi, for the film crew, the community, and guests. Apparently, it's located in the cave of events, and so the idea was born! What should it look like? He prefers to indulge in his favorite pastime: relaxing around the campfire! A friendly neighbor lent his face and hands to create lifelike casts. They constructed the upper body skeleton from strong wire. The legs were made from plumbing pipes and attached to the body. Now the hard work began. Everything had to be filled with scrap paper, wrapped several times, and then rewired. After dressing Lippi in old pants, they could begin the concrete work. Now the fine details of the body were modeled. The head, face, hands, and feet, which had been pre-cast, were placed in their designated places. The masterpiece was complete! With the kind support of the Kennfus volunteer fire department, Lippi then moved to his cave beneath the Falkenlay!

At first glance, the spiral sandstone staircase appears to be enclosed by a gate. However, this only prevents ascent. The descent leads into darkness via the stairs, which are partially slippery due to rubble, followed by a tunnel leading to a loooong, equally slippery staircase that descends into the depths. This tunnel then leads into a long, equally slippery tunnel with loopholes on the sides, at the end of which you return to daylight. Sturdy footwear and sufficient lighting, or good accident insurance, are recommended!

I was scared at first 😀

A nice little climbing spot, but it can easily be bypassed by a small path.

There is so much to discover on this section

Officially 'steep path' and that describes it much better. Even if there are elements that are familiar from via ferratas, the overall experience is more of a demanding, partly exposed and quite steep hiking trail in passages with clamps/ladders. Hardly anyone will have equipment here (except perhaps for children) and anyone who has a little experience of via ferrata can walk through here comfortably.

Caves and a nice rest area with information board
