About 600 meters above Ybbsitz lies a mysterious place: the Tannhäuser Cave. According to legend, a knight named Tannhäuser, along with two black dogs, guards a legendary treasure here. Numerous stories and legends surround the mysterious knight and his cave.
From the Tannhäuser Smithy, a short climb leads past the Prolling Cave to the Tannhäuser Cave. The subsequent loop trail delights visitors with atmospheric forest trails and magnificent views of Ybbsitz and the Prolling Valley.
Nature, history, and a dash of adventure—in the footsteps of Tannhäuser.
