A cooling cave on the way to the Kemptner hut. It's impressive when you walk through it. You can hear the roaring water below, but you can't see it.

On the way to the Simms Hütte you have to go through several short tunnels. In the 2 longest, a small lamp is an advantage.

Here the path takes you through a tunnel carved into the rock. It is not lit, so it is important that you have a lamp with you or a light on your bike.
