Hiking

In the course of the expansion of the "Grube Wohlfahrt" into a visitor mine, the mouth of the old Schwalenbach water solution tunnel was restored and the tunnel itself was made accessible until it fell after approx. 30 m.

Bats are supposed to find their winter quarters in the tunnel today. The entrance is blocked by an iron grille.
