Tips
The many rock groups of the desert castle cannot be found without a good highlight position. Birgit did a good job here, as the adjacent forest path does not provide any clues or a view of the rock formations. A detour is definitely worth it!

Above the Brauereiweg after the Gasthof Pulvermühle is located only 1.5 km away from the Wüstenburg hidden in the forest. Unfortunately, no sign leads there. A huge plant with beautiful rocks awaits us.

This rocky landscape is simply terrific. Be sure to plan when you are in the vicinity!
