Buchenlochhöhle

Gerolstein

The Buchenlochhöhle is located in the nature reserve of the Gerolstein Dolomites. It can be reached on foot via the "Gerolsteiner Felsenpfad" and the Eifelsteig. The cave was washed out of the rock millions of years ago by the dissolving power of groundwater and is open all year round.

The cave is freely accessible all year round via a ladder.
