Røverstuen.
Et jordfaldshuller, som ligger i den del af Rold skov, der kaldes Hesselholt Skov - lige syd for Store Økssø. Hullet er omkring 12 m dybt og ca. 35 m i diameter ved toppen og er et yndet legested for børn på egnen.
Historien der fortælles om Røverstuen, er knyttet til legenden om Røverne fra Rold.
Det fortælles, at en disse røverfamilier havde deres hule i bunden af Røverstuen, og at de havde snore spændt over vejen ovenfor hulen. For enden af snorene var der små klokker, der ringede, når de vejfarende kørte forbi, og røverne kunne derefter fare op og overfalde dem og røve, hvad de kunne.
Et jordfaldshul opstår ved, at nedsivende regnvand optager sure stoffer fra jorden i skov, hede og mose, hvilket bevirker, at der gradvist opløses så store hulrum i kalken, at sammenstyrtninger - jordfaldshuller – dannes.
Robber hole
One of the soil holes in the Rold Forest situated in the part of the wood just south of Store Øksså – is approximately 12 meters deep with a diameter of about 35 meters.
A soil hole is created, when percolating rainwater includes acidic substances from the soil in forests, heaths and bogs that causes a gradual resolution of the lime. Eventually collapses occur and the soil holes have been formed.
The story about Røverstuen is related to the legend about Røverne fra Rold (the robbers from Rold).
One of the robber families lived in the bottom of Røverstuen. They had thin strings stretched across the road above the cave and at the end of the strings they had tied small bells, that rang when the wayfarers passed. When they heard the bells the robbers would get out of the cave, attack the wayfarers and steal whatever they were carrying.
