Off to the holy mountain of Upper Swabia. The last few meters of the ramp are quite challenging. But a fantastic view awaits you at the top.

Today I was served a wonderful Swabian Dennete in the middle of the castle courtyard. Very friendly, dedicated staff, a very pleasant atmosphere! - The castle tavern is currently (September 2025) open on weekends. Saturdays from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m., Sundays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

A very distinctive and impressive cave located above the Danube. From the cave you have a great view of the Danube. However, the Ghost Cave is closed in the winter months until spring due to the bat population.
