Schwarzenfels Castle sits enthroned on a hill of the same name and is a great backdrop for a break on your bike tour! You can relax and refresh yourself in the café, but the old walls are also good for a long break: a youth hostel is housed in the castle. Of course you can also just look around here: the ruin is accessible everywhere and the view all around is a dream.

What a dream up there on the castle keep... the view as far as the eye can see... and a little further... and if your nerves allow it... you can feel comfortable on a grill with a clear view down...?😜
