Descripción Deutsch · English (Inglés)
As starting point I recommend the railway station in Puchberg/Schneeberg (parking space
is available if you arrive in time). The best way to visit the
cache is to do a round-trip visiting the summit of Himberg. I
didn't find any information about the hut (it was closed when we
were there), so you'd better bring your own provisions. There are
two paths leading from Puchberg up to the summit. The western path
offers several nice viewpoints (most of them with benches, such as
the Geierwand) and more sun than the eastern trail.
The path via the cave seemed to be steeper and marked less well to
us. The terrain-rating accounts for snow, under summerly conditions
it might seem exaggerated.
The cave (Allelujahöhle) is situated at about 750 m a.s.l., it
can't be missed as the marked path makes a turn there (culture
trail). According to legend local people sought shelter there
during the Ottoman wars (I found 1532 in a book, according to other
documents around 1680), until someone made a fire in the cave. So
the refugees were found and killed. Several human skeletons were
found in the cave.
The cave is almost 13 m long, but it has no dark parts and no
further extensions (which makes it uninteresting for bats). A torch
is not necessary here, from the portal the whole cave can be
overlooked.
In order to fetch the cache it is not necessary to enter the
cave, the cache is hidden outside!
In winter watch out for ice falling down from the portal's ceiling.
If it is cold enough the ground is covered by small icy stalagmites
(mind your step and don't destroy them!).
The unbelievable coordinates were actually measured next to the
cache. The eastern values were very stable, the northern values
varied a bit.
The cache is a very small Lock-Lock-Box. Initially it contained a
logbook, two ducks and a hedgehog. Please bring your own pen! Near
the cache watch out for shards of broken glass.
Have Fun!

18. noviembre 2013 Gavriel has archived the cache
Ich habe die Dose entfernt.
Die Höhle ist ohnehin Teil eines anderen Caches geworden, und so , wie dort derzeit Holzarbeiten durchgeführt werden, gefällt es mir nicht mehr wirklich.

werde ihn vermutlich archivieren, daher erst mal ein "disable"

Heute sollte es ein heißer Tag werden, so dass wir schon früh aufgebrochen sind. Zum Glück ging der Weg fast immer durch den Wald, aber der teilweise steile Aufstieg brachte uns doch zum Schwitzen. An der Höhle haben wir mehrfach an falschen Stellen gesucht, die Dose aber dann doch gefunden und ein paar Sachen getauscht.
Raus: Würfel, Schnecken-Bowser. Rein: Schwarzenberger Edelstein, Glasmurmel, Puzzlemurmel.
Danke für den Cache und das Zeigen der Höhle sagen cobra-11.
