A very special natural monument takes you right down to the depths of the Cave Schneckenloch in Bizau.

Guided e-bike tours greatly enlarge the network of tours that can be taken by groups, the mountains and their nature can be enjoyed in a state of relaxation, and your clothing is not quite as sweaty at the end of the tour.
