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 the creek was very slippery as it was frozen. Walking down this path is not easy, especially when it is wet. But there is an alternative way.

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.
