The approximately 4 meter long fox hole has a flat entrance. A corridor about 3.5 meters long, 1.5 meters wide and 0.3 to 0.5 meters high leads from the entrance to the northwest. Other existing parts of the cave interior are not accessible due to the clay deposits. This makes them interesting for future excavations.
The cave floor is covered with a partially dry layer of cave clay, which even extends beyond the entrance.
