The Story

Here is another castle in Rheinland-Pfalz that was blown up either by the French or destroyed during the Peasants War. But don’t worry about that. All you care about is having a place to rest your weary legs and enjoy the view. Thirsty? Grab a cold wein schorle while you enjoy the fruits of civilization! The little restaurant also offers food to restore your powered-out muscles.

Tips for your visit

You cannot drive up to the castle so you will have to hike up the hill. See the Komoot map to guide you from the parking lot. Have fun!

  1. We love this place! It can be a tough hike up the hill and we often use it as a stop when we hike the trails from Bad D.
