Location description:
The Messerschmidt Tunnel in Kematen was once an underground armaments production facility for aircraft during World War II. It is in relatively good condition. Access is a bit complicated, however, since the front area is cordoned off; you have to go around the site a bit and do some light climbing to get in, but the path is still easy to find. The tunnel runs an estimated 150 to 200 meters straight through the mountain and emerges on the other side right by the river. As for safety: A helmet is absolutely mandatory, and good equipment is generally required. Anyone who wants to venture deeper into the tunnel must also have climbing gear and a rope, as there is a descent at a certain point that cannot be managed without the proper equipment.

At 300$, this backpack is certainly not one of the cheapest backpacks, but we can say with a clear conscience that it is money well spent. It is well produced, has some well thought-out functions and still looks nice. Despite the high price, this backpack also has 4.5 stars out of 300 Amazon reviews.
4-Gas Monitor
A 4-gas monitor detects and measures not only carbon monoxide but also the levels of oxygen, combustible gases and hydrogen sulphide and ensures safety in hazardous environments by indicating dangerous gas concentrations. Highly recommended especially in bunkers and places where there is not much fresh air
