Hinterburg

Very nice view of a Neckarschleife and over to the festival Dilsberg. The ascent of the tower, however, is adventurous, as it is pitch dark there. Without a flashlight it is nowadays with a flashlight app on the smartphone but no problem. Otherwise, climbing stairs would be very difficult.

The (about 113 steps) ascent to the tower ♖ is rewarded with a beautiful view over the Neckarschleife

Freely accessible ruin with lookout tower, no entrance fee needed. One of the castles of the four-castle corner on the Neckar. Short walk to the Schwalbennest, definitely with visit.

You should have seen it

Great view from the donjon and numerous nice resting possibilities on the walls of the ruin.

The Hinterburg is accessible for free

Dilsberg is a beautiful old town located high above the Neckar. Has a castle ruin with a beautiful view over the Neckar valley. Located on the Neckarsteig.

The castle is walkable and free. 👍

Steep increase worthwhile.
Dilsberg Castle costs 2 euros entry, worth it as the castle and the castle galleries are preserved.

The Schwalbennest was unfortunately closed because of rock work.

Great castle ruins with great views from the tower. Beware - the tower climb is very dark!

The keep and some foundations of the foundations are present. The keep can be climbed and is an aha experience.

Nice located castle with good
View of the Neckar valley

If you are on the Neckarsteig, you should definitely include the ascent to the tower of the rear castle. Since the tower has no windows, it is very dark inside and you need a flashlight or cell phone to get to the top safely. The view from above compensates for the difficult ascent.

Also in autumn 🍂 a fantastic view of the Neckar valley

Great view of the valley - climb is worth it.
In winter, the rise to the tower may be too dark.

Great view, climb is definitely worth it

Hinterburg and Schwalbennest are easy to reach. and for the sturdy and vertigo-free people also accessible for the towers

The back castle, also called Alt-Schadeck, is the ruin of a spur castle at 165 m above sea level. NN near Neckarsteinach in the Bergstrasse district in Hesse. It is the oldest of the four castles Vorderburg, Mittelburg, Hinterburg and Schwalbennest and the ancestral castle of the noble women of Steinach.

The castle is a historical place paired with suitable art👍

Nice view of the Neckarschleife

From the Butg you have a dreamy block down to the Neckar. Ideal for a rest.

Very nice hiking trail with great views

Freely accessible castle ruins. The tower can be climbed to enjoy the view.
