Schwarzbachloch

The heavily pouring Schwarzbachloch (July 2011)

The Schwarzbach rises from an active water cave, the Schwarzbachloch (cadastral number 1337/1). It is located on the eastern flank of the Reiter Alm near the Schwarzbachwacht near Ramsau near Berchtesgaden . The 3120 meter long water cave was created by the groundwater accumulation between Ramsaudolomit and Dachstein limestone . The karst spring rises directly from the cave or a little below (min. 30 l / s, max 17,000 l / s), depending on the bed . The water temperature is 5.4 ° Celsius. When the water level is low, it is possible to penetrate up to 40 meters into the tunnel system. However, this is prohibited by a nature reserve ordinance issued by the government of Upper Bavaria. The Schwarzbachloch was already marked on the Bavarian map published in 1554 by Philipp Apian . In 1968 Jochen Hasenmayer dived through the cave.

course

The gorge-like mountain stream runs north with many waterfalls and flows into the Saalach on the right at Unterjettenberg (Gem. Schneizlreuth ) . For reasons of nature conservation, there has been a year-round traffic ban since 1996.
