Erzenhausen Dripstone Cave

Highlight • Cave

Very interesting cave. Please bring a flashlight as it is really very dark.
It should also be mentioned that it is always closed from October to April as bats hibernate here.

January 19, 2025,Eulenkopfturm 🦉mit Trauzimmer – Tropfsteinhöhle🦇💧 Runde um Eulenbis

Beautiful frosty winter tour in the sun near Eulenbis. We saw the Eulenkopf tower, a small quarry, a cave in which a feared burglar found shelter, a stalactite cave that is unfortunately currently closed due to the bats' hibernation, beautiful views and frosty ice sculptures in nature❄️🥶😍It wasn't anything demanding but a nice little tour close to home👌🥰

Long weekend in the Palatinate 😊

Warm-up walk near Erzenhausen. Beautiful tarred paths through the fields and hills, as well as one or two adventurous paths 👍

Towards the end we stopped by the stalactite cave.

The weather was changeable ☁️⛅️ but we were lucky 🍀...no rain 🌧

It was fun 😃

We started behind the cemetery in Eulenbis.
From here we went via the Eulenkopfwarte in the direction of Erzenhausen to the stalactite cave & back again. If you want to see the stalactite cave, you should take a flashlight 🔦 with you.
And no....
the mobile phone flashlight is not enough.
📱🔦😉.
