Angerlloch

Angerlloch is a cave system with a waterfall located in Wallgau at approximately 950 meters elevation. The site features two separate entrances and contains multiple water-filled passages along with a large underground waterfall.

The cave system has served as a research site for geologists studying karst formations in the Ester Mountains since early expeditions. These investigations significantly contributed to understanding the geological processes in the region.

The cave functions as a training location for spelunking groups and rescue teams, contributing to the development of cave exploration techniques.

Access requires specialized equipment such as ropes, helmets, and waterproof clothing that you may bring or arrange locally. Entry is limited during winter months to protect the bat populations living inside.

A remarkable passage called Volksbad requires visitors to descend steep slippery rock walls and traverse an approximately 25-meter water-filled section. This natural obstacle course serves as training ground for cave explorers who regularly practice here.
