Hiking

Here you have a good view of the stately keep and the south-western area. Below the tower is the old "bear enclosure" in which the castle bear "Poldi" lived until 1982.

In clear weather, visibility is excellent. Unfortunately it was cloudy, but the tower could not be overlooked.

Hiking

From the freely accessible southwest corner tower, not only the view of the castle complex is interesting, but also the wide view that extends to the foothills of the Jura and the Haßberge.
