The entrance fee of 2 euros is definitely worth it, as you can enjoy a great view from here. Unfortunately the tower is currently closed.

The view of Frankfurt from Falkenstein Castle is simply breathtaking. From the castle ruins you have a fantastic view of the Frankfurt skyline and the wide Rhine-Main plain. Especially in clear weather you can enjoy the impressive silhouette of the city and the surrounding landscapes.

From Falkenstein Castle you have an impressive view of Frankfurt. On a clear day, the view extends to the skyline and far into the surrounding area. A worthwhile stop on the hike.
