    Hiking

    The ascent to the cathedral is great. The cathedral itself is then very sublime and impressive. A visit is worthwhile.

    Hiking

    After a lot of stairs you finally arrive on the castle hill and can enjoy the view over the city.

    Hiking

    There's a considerable difference in elevation between the (bourgeois) Old Town and the Freiheit (Freedom) and Burgberg (Castle Hill). This also means that the city is characterized by numerous staircases and sunken lanes. The Castle Steps lead from the upper end of Burgstrasse or the sunken lane straight up to the Castle Bridge. This also offers a view of the bridge's 13th-century arches – a technical masterpiece of its time.
