|
<p>From the <a href="../tollrd.htm">Loser Panoramastraße</a>
|
|
Bergrestaurant car park (bottom right of picture), take the path leading from
|
|
the NE corner, which is slightly shorter, and soon joins the main path.
|
|
Alternatively, follow the main touroid path, numbered 201, and marked with
|
|
red and white paint at frequent intervals (heading up left of centre in the
|
|
picture). Following this gently undulating path for ten to fifteen minutes
|
|
leads to <a href="../egglgrub.html">Egglgrube</a>. To the left is a
|
|
valley containing several obvious sinkholes, with a junction path leading to
|
|
<a href="../br-alm.html">Bräuning Alm.</a> Ahead and to the right
|
|
is a 10m cliff rising from the pasture to an area of karren and dwarf pine.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Follow the main path 201 straight ahead up a break in the small cliff and
|
|
continue over karren which is well covered with Lärchen (dwarf pine,
|
|
spuriously known as "Bunde" within CUCC). A T-junction is met, left leading
|
|
into the <a href="../kratzer.html">Kratzer valley</a> (an area explored
|
|
by group believed to be German), while right is the main path. <b>This
|
|
junction is easy to miss on the return in mist or at night</b>. A few minutes
|
|
further on, where a cave is marked by a large red Omega in the middle of the
|
|
path (1623/28), there is a junction path to the left, and
|
|
<a href="../handbook/survey/lasers.htm">Laser-fixed point 7/9</a> marked with a bolt.</p>
|

|
|
|
|
<p>The lower entrances to the
|
|
<a href="41.htm">Stellerweghöhlensystem</a> are reached by
|
|
following the main path, described <a href="via201.htm">elsewhere</a>. Caves
|
|
around "The Nipple", including all the higher entrances to the
|
|
Stellerweghöhlensystem, and a number of caves not explored by CUCC, are
|
|
reached by following this junction path. This starts out well-marked with
|
|
cairns and red paint spots/arrows. After a short while, it traverses below a
|
|
cliff on the left. At the far end of this, a climb up reaches a well-hidden
|
|
route to <a href="../noinfo/1623/78.htm">Schwabenschacht</a> (1623/78).</p>

|
|
|
|
<p>The main way leads uphill for about 30 minutes to the back of a limestone
|
|
knoll known as The Nipple (German groups call this <span lang="de">Weiße
|
|
Warze,</span> and in older CUCC logbook accounts it is Bunter's Bulge). Beyond
|
|
this it becomes harder to follow. There is a laser point on top of the Nipple,
|
|
whilst caves <a href="143.htm">143</a> and <a href="144.htm">144</a> are on the
|
|
SE side. This point is between an hour and an hour and a half from the car
|
|
park, depending on load / fitness / familiarity.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Beyond the area of the Nipple, the path continues into the <a
|
|
href="40area.html">Eishöhle area</a>.</p>
