Today I went on a wonderful little hike to the 🏰 Araburg, the highest castle ruin in Lower Austria.

I had a very good and plentiful meal in the Araburg Stüberl. 😋🍺

Wonderful snow hike. Visited again after many years, a lot has changed!
There is a card machine for entry into the castle. Very well done the video animations.
The 5 euros are well worth it, there is a lot on offer. I liked that very much.

On the way home the sun came through 🤪
The Araburg is open all year round!!!
There is a machine in front where you can buy a card (5 €). A guided tour takes place there medial. Really great and contactless! 👍😊
