Hiking

These flee castles were strategically placed to defend highs. They were not used permanently and served the residents to protect themselves in armed conflicts.

Hiking

The Keltenfliehburg, also known as the Keltenring, can only be reached from Schönecken on foot in around 20-25 minutes. Sturdy shoes are strongly recommended. The natural weir system of bygone times fits perfectly into the beautiful and protected landscape of the Altburgtal. schoenecken.com/HTML/kelten.htm
