The castle ruins are always a highlight. There is a lot to discover. The trails down are then the "treat" on top.

Beautiful tour through forests and along the Regen in the bright winter sun.🙂

The profile of the tour is classified as moderate. The ruins of Stockenfels Castle are not accessible. You will also look in vain for a nice place to rest. Views of the countryside none. The last stretch on the Regen river is mostly out of sight of the water body.
