Neuschwanstein Castle is undoubtedly one of the most famous sights that Germany has to offer. The castle, which stands above Hohenschwangau near Füssen in southern Bavaria, can look back on more than 100 years of history. The imposing castle was built in 1869 for King Ludwig II, who is said to have been drawn to the mountains all his life and therefore had Schwanstein Castle built on a narrow ridge called Pöllat.The dreamlike Neuschwanstein Castle was built on the model of the Wartburg, many years earlier the abandoned ruins of the two castles at Vorder- and Hinterhohenschwangau. The Bavarian King Ludwig II wanted to create an ideal of a medieval castle with the project "Neuschwanstein Castle", informs the website of the city of Füssen. The fairytale king, as Ludwig II is often called in history, was said to be very interested in the Middle Ages.

A hike to the castle and the Marienbrücke I can highly recommend. From the Marienbrücke you have a nice view of the castle. Likewise, one should make a visit to the castle.

The Ahornreitweg is the counterpart to the Schutzengelweg. He is about 14km with an up / down of good 911Hm. The nature tour leads first on an alpine path with valley view in the middle of the mountains. Later, the path turns into gentler paths and passes the restaurant "Bleckenau". If you like, you can take the bus back to the Tegelbahn via Hohenschwangau. Or the route to walk. If you decide to walk, you will pass the mountain river and the Marinbrücke near Neuschwanstein.
