Hiking

The Grundlose Loch is a hole in the ground with an area of about 190 square meters. At its bottom, about three and a half meters deep, there is a spring from which water that is about 10 degrees warm always bubbles. This water contains a lot of sulfate and flows directly into the Salza. The spring supplies about 8.5 percent of the Salza's water.

The bottomless hole is an earthfall, it belongs to the Salza spring system, because there is a karst spring on the ground. It is very mystical and beautiful here.
