September 9, 2024,Gößweinstein Tag 4a - Promenadenweg Burg Rabenstein
Rabenstein Castle and the Sophien Cave are also worth a visit if you are on holiday in Franconian Switzerland. You can visit the state and knights' halls of the well-preserved Rabenstein Castle and then stop off at the manor tavern. The falconry right next to the castle is also very interesting.
The Sophien Cave is located very close to the …

First we hike to the Sophienhöhle and via the Ludwigshöhle to the Schneiderloch. Our small …

Beautiful short hike with many highlights. Without a dog, you should also plan a tour of Rabenstein Castle and the Sophienhöhle.

On public holidays like Easter, it's best to start early in the morning as the paths can get crowded from midday onwards.

Very nice hike through the forest in impressive nature. However, a certain level of fitness and surefootedness (roots, stones, steps) is required. Suitable for children from 8 years.
