Open shelter with signposts and trash cans. Nice. The road I then continued south from there was a real pain. It was littered with tire tracks, holes, deep undulations, and during the rainy season, mud and mud holes. You don't need to have them. But when it's dry, you can get through without a nervous breakdown.

The Wichtelhöhlen (Gnome Caves) near Bad Kissingen are an impressive rock formation made of red sandstone, created by erosion. It's especially lovely to take a few minutes to explore the winding caves and crevices up close. The place has a mystical quality and invites you to linger for a while. The Wichtelhöhle (Gnome Cave) is also a little adventure for children, as there's so much to discover.

At the Wichtelhöhlenhütte (Witch Cave Hut), there's a lovely seating area with benches, perfect for a short rest. If you take your time, you can not only enjoy the view of the rock formations, but with a little luck, you might also hear the birds chirping in the quiet forest. Ideal for a quick break with provisions before continuing on.

Very interesting, there is also a shelter. Since it is always very humid here, there are also a lot of annoying insects.🦟
