After a short but crisp ascent, you reach Nassau Castle from Nassau. A beautifully restored castle complex with a great, climbable keep and the castle tavern in the former castle building. Reasonable prices, very friendly operators. From the keep, you have a great all-round view of the Lahn Valley, Nassau BD and the surrounding area. The climb is worth it.
