As in many places, there is also a fantastic view down into the valley here.

You have to hike to the castle, and you have to do it over this hill. The view alone would be reason enough. A magnificent place.

Shortly before the castle there is another bench with a wonderful panorama over the landscape and with a view of the castle

Destination of our day's journey. A wonderful hotel with friendly, welcoming staff. A great kitchen with delicious food. The rooms are comfortable, and the bike is safe in the garage—what more could you want? Highly recommended
