View of Reussenstein Castle from the Bahnhöfle barbecue area

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very nice barbecue area with a view of the castle. In summer, the view of the castle can be limited by the foliage on the trees.

Neidlingen Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The ascent to the waterfall alone is worth it: very steep over a lot of roots. The steps up were their own waterfall in late December - the bridge over …

View of Reußenstein Castle and the Neidlingen Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beautiful, exposed vantage point with a phenomenal view of the ruin Reußenstein. Very comfortable with a bench under a small oak. Unfortunately, I could not determine a name for the rock or lookout point.

Great hike to the Reußenstein castle ruins. Over hill and dale you reach the castle ruins in a short time. A site that is absolutely worth seeing awaits you! A highlight! Then it goes on to the Neidlinger waterfall, which you absolutely must see! A really beautiful tour, with great moments and beautiful views!

April 26, 2025,Neidlinger Frühlingsrunde mit Sahnehäubchen: Obstblüte, Wasserfall und Burg

Nature is currently showing off its most magnificent side. The fruit trees are in bloom, competing with the meadows and forest edges.

This somewhat compensates for the fact that the Neidlingen Waterfall is only a mere trickle, despite the rain of the last few days. On the other hand, the clouds cast Reußenstein Castle in a dramatic light. I almost …

June 26, 2022,Kirschentour: Von Neidlingen zum Reußenstein

What can I say: Awesome tour on an awesome day. Optimal weather (sunny with passing clouds and mostly always a breeze of wind).
We started from Neidlingen in the direction of the Neidlinger waterfalls and here we passed many fruit-bearing cherry trees - hence the cherry tour!
Unfortunately, the waterfalls don't have much water at the moment, but we still …

February 11, 2023,🏰 Reußenstein 🏰 muss einfach immer mal wieder sein

The Reußenstein has been on my mind for the past few days, and today I thought I'd do the "Sonne und Eis" tour by@TheChain . But I started relatively late and when I took a break at the Hindenburghütte, it was already after 3 p.m. That's why I decided to take the shorter route past the Bahnhöfle. But I'll definitely …
