Hidden in the dense greenery of the Bavarian Forest lies the Diebstein Cave, a fascinating natural phenomenon and a place that has captured the imagination for centuries. Formed by so-called "semi-finished weathering," the cave offers a striking insight into the geological dynamics of the region: The rock is less resistant in deeper layers and weathers more quickly – this is how the cave-like cavities, which can now be explored with a flashlight, were formed. The name "Diebstein Cave" is not accidental. In the past, it was considered sinister by the local population, a refuge for poachers and cattle rustlers, who hid their loot here and allegedly even slaughtered it. Legend has it that they hung the meat on nails inside the cave. Traces of this were reportedly visible until the 1930s. The cave is part of a popular hiking trail around Saldenburg and Thurmansbang. The route leads through tranquil forests, past rock formations and small chapels, an experience for nature lovers, history buffs, and anyone seeking the unassuming and unspoiled. The Diebstein Cave is not a tourist hotspot with a signage system and souvenir shop, but a powerful place whose silence and isolation touch the soul. https://www.ostbayern-tourismus.de/attraktionen/diebsteinhoehle-462b9fbdc5

This water is said to be the best water for making coffee.

Very nice rocks and a great trail

Wonderful forest path! Easy to walk and with the trees on the slopes on both sides of the Ilz there is a good chance of being able to do a shady lap if you prefer that in the summer heat.

Beautiful route to the scrap tree mill

Where the Ohe and Ilz merge

The best thing about the Ilz hiking trail is the Schrottenbaummühle. A stop there is a must.

Beautifully laid out
