View from Uhufels with picnic area

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the starting point in Bad Münster at the LIDL car park, you can turn left towards Ruingrafenstein Ruins or right into the forest towards Altenbaumburg Ruins. I've already done both. The routes are easy to walk in both directions.

July 23, 2023,Revival: Burgruine Rheingrafenstein 🏰– Blick zur Ebernburg Runde von Altenbamberg

Top tour 👍 Many small paths, castles, great views, places to stop...
From Altenbamberg, a serpentine path leads directly up to Altenbaumburg, which is managed in summer and offers a beautiful view of the valley. Here you can sit outside.
From there, the tour leads along small paths to the Rheingrafenstein castle ruins, always with a view of the Rotenfels …

Two castle ruins that are well worth seeing, quiet and mostly narrow forest hiking trails, a nice stop - what more could you want ... 😉

By making a slight variation on this favorite hike, I discovered a new vantage point from which the Rheingrafenstein ruins are magnificently visible (see photos).

The Lidl parking lot is more suitable for this tour than the public one here in the tour. That shortens the tour a bit.

December 26, 2024,Rheingrafenstein – Altenbaumburg Runde von Freizeitpark Kuhberg

A beautiful little tour with a sporty challenge and the Rheingrafenstein castle ruins as the highlight. Most of the time you are on pretty single trails, which can be a bit muddy after rain. The circuit is somehow quite simple, but at the same time comfortably adventurous and offers many incredible views.

October 16, 2024,Vitaltour Rheingrafenstein bei Bad Münster

Wonderful tour with plenty of views, interesting castles and delicious refreshments
The chosen starting point with free parking in Bad Münster am Stein was a little difficult to get to, but is ideally located. Right at the beginning you get a view of the Ebernburg, which was not part of the tour, and off we went, climbing steadily but not …
