Fürstenweg (Castle Avenue) to Ballenstedt Castle

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The magnificent avenue, also known as the Fürstenweg, leads from Gernrode directly to the impressive Ballenstedt Castle. The avenue is particularly picturesque in autumn, when the leaves on the trees turn the most beautiful colors.
