Frankenbourg Castle has been officially closed since April 2025 due to rockfall. You can only get within a few hundred meters. Unfortunately, due to the dense forest, you can't see it. Instead, I recommend the southern Chateau de Saint Ulrich, which is a lovely hike from Ribeauville.

Coming from the top, you can descend a short distance to the right and reach a plateau in front. Here you can also take a short rest with a great view.
