Hiking
About 1100 meters southeast of Ahlften is the so-called Grundlose Kuhle. A circular crater about 40 m in diameter, with an almost circular small pond about 5 m deep and 20 m in diameter. The water level is 1 ½ m above the nearby Böhme. Although it has neither an inflow nor an outflow, it hardly changes. The sinkhole was caused by salt leaching in the soil and represents a geological karst formation of national importance. [5] There are many legends about the Grundlose Kuhle. One says that there was a castle on this spot in ancient times.
