In the sedimentary rock that towers next to the Alt-Wolfstein castle ruins, there are several dug tunnels, one of which extends a good 5 meters deep into the rock and can be explored by crawling.

August 30, 2025,🥾 Wolfstein 🏰
Accompanied by rain ☔️ and sunshine 🌞, we start today's tour in Wolfstein. Steeply uphill, past Brünnelcher, we reach the Alt Wolfstein castle ruins.
We enjoy the view of Wolfstein and continue along forest paths to the Neu Wolfstein ruins. We climb the tower via 79 steps, again enjoying a magnificent view, albeit with ominous dark clouds. In light rain, …

Today we went to Wolfstein on the Königsbach-Weg.
I stumbled across this tour by accident last night and we went straight there today.
It was a varied tour that we really enjoyed.
Everything was there...castle ruins, paths, views, beautiful stream, meadows, forests...
and the nice feeling of having a damp forest floor under your feet again. 😊
