Below the ruin Arnstein (destroyed by the Turks in 1529), 128m long, was used by the castle residents as stables. Accessible from the south, pass right next to the ruins (S1). The way from the north (Maria Raisenmarkt) is not really recommended by bike. See photo (S3, also very steep)

Hiking

From the castle Arnstein are only more remains to see, the more interesting is the Arnsteinhöhle directly below it. Even adults can go about 10 meters into the cave interior, allegedly the cave is 40 meters deep. The rumor persists that there is a gold treasure buried there. The steep rock is used as a climbing training ground. Incidentally, helmet and flashlight are recommended for the cave. Also worth seeing: the Arnsteinnadel, a 13 meter high rock formation.
