    The castle consisted of a bailey and a main castle. But it has disintegrated so much that I could not imagine what it looked like.

      There is not much left of the castle, but on the upper castle you have a nice opportunity to rest with a view

        Here you enter the Breitenstein ruins from below (on a beautiful hiking trail) - and first come across a time table and then the beautiful archway. The further route of the "Drei-Burgen-Weg" runs a short stretch from here very steeply (and pretty much washed out by rainwater) up onto a wide path, which then remains wide as far as the parking lot.
