Burg Landskron

Highlight • Castle

Shoot like that!
Within and within 1 km of the castle is a complete biking prohibition.
but by car you can drive to the castle courtyard.
And with buses they still cart fat tourists up to the hole

September 1, 2024,Runde Jungfernsprung- Affenberg-Burg Landskron 01.09.2024

A fantastic tour! At the beginning there is a steep climb of around 3 km, very demanding. Once you have managed this,⁶ you are rewarded with a wonderful view over Lake Ossiach at the Jungfernsprung. When you visit the monkey mountain you get an interesting insight into the social behavior of our ancestors🐵😀 Then we go on to Landskron Castle …

A leisurely loop. A short, steep climb, followed by a gentle uphill and downhill section. A detour to the Monkey Mountain or Landskron Castle is also possible.
