Τα 20 καλύτερα κάστρα Gansingen

very pretty here, very pretty

It's picturesquely situated and worth a visit, but a good level of fitness is required. Unfortunately, the upper access is currently closed due to a landslide (a fir tree fell and swept away the access steps directly in front of the ruins). Therefore, you have to take the longer route over the bridge further down.

Habsburg Castle is the cradle of the Habsburg dynasty. This is where it all began. Today, the castle is home to a great restaurant that takes up most of the castle's rooms. The complex is therefore open all year round and can be visited free of charge. However, you won't find an extensive museum or dozens of rooms here. Only the palace (tower) and the outdoor area, including the outer castle ruins, can be visited. A small shop at the sod fountain offers the opportunity to buy souvenirs, books and the like. You can even rent VR glasses that show the viewer virtually what the Habsburg once looked like. The view from up here is breathtaking, by the way. Autumn in particular has its colorful advantages. The castle can also be easily reached by car. There is a sufficiently large parking lot. Anyone who is out and about as a hiker or biker will get their money's worth in terms of the route.

Again and again you come across small or larger waterfalls during the ascent (and of course also during the descent)

A somewhat strenuous climb, was glad about my poles but it was worth it

Be careful, make sure you wear good shoes when it's wet. The moss can make the steps slippery. Nice in both directions 🤗

Kasteln Castle is located on a rocky outcrop, surrounded by vineyards and forests in Oberflachs in the municipality of Schinznach. Today it serves as a school for normally gifted students with behavioral problems.

Really really super beautiful
