Cäcilien Grotto

Highlight • Cave

On my walk, I was most impressed by the grotto itself. The ceiling must have been closed at some point, meaning it collapsed. But that only makes it more mystical now. Amazing! 😎✌️

Frankenkammer Cave

Highlight • Cave

Accessible and climbable cave, which is also part of the second section of the Höhenglücksteig. Unsecured but equipped with metal steps. A real highlight to be able to climb up or down through a narrow opening.

Brettl Rock Climbing Area

Highlight • Climb

The gentle introduction to Brettl.
After a few meters the slightly more “difficult” section begins, which is again defused by a lot of metal 😉

Franke Chimney

Highlight • Climb

On the opposite side is the Mittelbergwand with a fireplace.
The Franke chimney was still without a wire rope until 2013 - after which it was reinsured.
