코펜그레이브‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

The Rothestein Cave is a special highlight here. It's open from April to September. The climb is probably not suitable for everyone. Maybe I'm too tall for it. 😅

The story of the Rothestein Cave is interesting and exciting!

The natural ridge path along the Ith cliffs leads through the most beautiful nature and is peppered with vantage points for fantastic views. Good physical condition and surefootedness are a basic requirement for large parts of the path, however, especially when the paths become narrow trails. The winding paths, the constant ups and downs, which can make the path an exhausting challenge, should not be underestimated.

The cliff path is a true hiking gem. It goes through the dense, old beech forests of the lth on mostly fine, narrow paths. And by the way, you walk past wonderful grotesque rock formations that run the entire way. The cliffs are sometimes small, sometimes they offer wonderful views and sometimes they are so big that you can climb them. A really worthwhile path.

Passed by here on our 5th Ith-Hils-Weg stage.

Not overcrowded, sturdy shoes recommended. Again and again magnificent views.

In the season when the cave is accessible (April 1st - September 30th) you should take the chance and go inside. The narrow, long corridor conveys an exciting cave feeling. Today, however, one can no longer really imagine how cult sacrificial rituals took place here in the Bronze Age. Alfred Wollemann examined this cave for the first time in 1853 and found shards of pots, bones and tools made of bronze. The finds have been scientifically assigned to the Bronze Age. His descriptions of human sacrifices and cultic acts are now considered to be reliable.

Fantastic view. On the other side you can see into the quarry.
