Great castle that dates back to the 12th century. In summer there are theatrical performances here. And the view is really great. Watch out for the first steps, they are very dark, even during the day.

A really relaxed round. The paths are very well developed, it's easily doable with children. At the ruin, the children will naturally get their money's worth. The parking lot at the Waldau Schänke is only for guests of the restaurant. If you still want to park there, you can make a donation to Katharinenhöhe, see picture 48. It's a nice …
