Hell-Grottoes is the name of a group of very interesting limestone caves near Baar.

The caves are located in the middle of the wild, romantic Lorzentobel and they are covered with unusual stone formations. Small lakes, stalagmites and stalactites of various coulours give each cave its own unique character. The Hell Grottoes in Baar were formed over the course of thousands of years from calcareous springs, and were discovered at the end of the 19th century during the removal of tufaceaous limestone. Today, this underground magical realm is lit by electricity and the separate caves are connected by good walking paths. A typical visit to the caves lasts about 3/4 hours, and a guide is not necessary. The Hell Grottoes can be reached from Baar via a good road by either bicycle or car.
