March 31, 2025,Wanderung zur Burgruine Neideck

On our trip to Franconian Switzerland, we stopped in Streitberg and visited the Neideck Castle ruins. Once at the top, we received a lot of information from the excellent signage.

The starting point was actually at the destination, but I started the app too late. At B there is a small, nice parking lot from where we started.
