The Hohlensteinhöhle is located in Mariazell in Styria and can be reached via marked hiking trails in around 20 minutes from the mountain station of the cable car to the Bürgeralpe . The show cave was established in 1934, but tours have only been offered again since 2014. The cave is accessed via a path, sometimes via ladders (see gallery).
