Hohenwaldeck castle ruins

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Hohenwaldeck Castle ruins are well worth seeing because they contain large remains of walls dating back to the High Middle Ages. More important, however, is their stunningly beautiful location high above Schliersee, offering unobstructed views of the lake and the mountains.
The Bavarian State Forests have carefully secured the castle ruins, so that this historic and romantic site can now also be visited with children.
The climb to the castle is steep and takes 40 minutes from Fischhaus-Neuhaus.
Supplying the castle must have been very difficult in the Middle Ages.
Access is now via a new wooden bridge, and large sections of the shield wall with some rusticated blocks can still be seen. This makes it easy to narrow down the first construction phase to the second half of the 13th century, the Staufer period.
Several new benches have been installed, and the short path down to the viewing point is definitely worth the effort. It offers a fantastic view of Schliersee and the surrounding mountains.

Absolut d'accord to describe Peter - in addition: The ruin is a popular family hiking destination. Therefore: Consideration is required :-). Avoid it if it is damp. Otherwise the stone and root passages will become an incalculable slide due to the gradient.
