The smaller of two caves in Ründeroth, but the one that can be visited at all. The cave is located directly on the "Cave Trail", the Bergischer Streifzug with the number 14, which starts at the railway station in Ründeroth.
The guided tour route itself is 270 m long with an elevation difference of approximately 10 m and is easy to navigate. The entrance hall and main passageway are also wheelchair-accessible. The temperature remains between 6 and 8 degrees Celsius year-round.
The Aggertal Cave is open every year from April 1 to November 1, Thursday through Sunday from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., as well as on holidays. A standard guided tour lasts approximately 45–50 minutes. The first tour begins at 10:00 a.m. Subsequent tours start every 75 minutes. Visitors can also purchase gifts or souvenirs to take home as mementos.

Please remember to wear warm clothing, as the temperature inside the cave remains between 6 and 8 degrees Celsius year-round.
Here you can watch a drone tour of the cave.
It is not possible to explore the entire guided tour route in a wheelchair, as there are narrow passages and steps inside the cave. However, it is possible to see at least parts of the cave in a wheelchair. Please contact us in advance of a planned visit to discuss this.
