The castle, or rather the ruins of the castle, is Heidelberg's main attraction. You can get to the castle by mountain railway, your own car or bus, or better still on the old castle path. I would recommend the Burgweg as it leads through the back gardens, past some connecting houses. A wonderful view at the top.

From the castle you have a wonderful view of the Neckar and the old town of Heidelberg.
