Hiking

Great viewpoint ruined castle right on the cliff edge. Some rooms still visible, but take care it's not an easy path and walls look cracked. Gives you a good insight into what it have been like to live in.

Wonderful castle directly in the rock.
Freely accessible.
Caution when wet, risk of slipping!
Parking on site, approx. 1km walk.

Hiking

A good size car park allows easy access to walk to the castle. From the top of the cliffs the castle can easily be seen, and a small path leads down to it. Some of the structure can be explored but being situated on the cliff it is rather dangerous. A good view not to be missed is going down to the small beach just below the castle.
