ウッツェンハインの洞窟・トップ20

The steep hiking trail winds its way up to Maus Castle via several switchbacks. And from there, it climbs a good bit further. The effort is rewarded by absolutely breathtaking viewpoints.

Weddings in castles and palaces are very popular. But finding the perfect dream castle isn't always easy. Maus Castle is certainly a good bet!

We were there at the end of April, and the many different shades of green were somewhat reminiscent of Galicia. Please note that there are hardly any trash cans along the way, so please take your trash with you. There is a wine shop below the castle.

"Rheinfels Castle was beset by enemies, and no other rock was fought over more fiercely. And never have there been more people who still haunt the place today: Reinfels remains my rock!" (Limerick poet Dieter Höss)

The way up is easy to walk

On the wide castle driveway you can quickly get up to the Maus

The path winds up the mountain, first in wide and then in narrow serpentines. It is pleasant to walk as it is not that steep.

Rheinfels Castle is the largest surviving castle ruin on the Rhine. Although time has left its mark on the walls, you can still imagine what the magnificent fortress must have looked like. Part of the castle is now a museum where you can learn about the interesting history of the place.
