Blick ins Tal

On the way to Neuschwanstein Castle there are a few viewpoints from which you have a wonderful view of the valley.

I think Hohenschwangau doesn't need to hide behind Neuschwanstein.

Also a very nice castle 😊

A visit to Neuschwanstein Castle is very nice, I highly recommend it. The castle can be reached on foot, by carriage or by bus

Great area there! 👍

If you visit the castle Neuschwanstein, you should also go to the beautiful Alpsee and enjoy the beautiful nature.

Very beautiful castle and the lake invites you to rest.

The Alpsee (about 62m deep) near Hohenschwangau impresses with its blue clear water. In addition to an outdoor pool and the resident boat rental, the lake offers a light Alpine circular walk with a length of about 6km! The hiking trail is "not suitable for wheelchairs, strollers or bicycles"! It always goes back over rough stones, big roots and small bridges with grid floor, mountain up and down! The view is breathtaking and you get a glimpse of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwanstein here and there!

You have a great view from here

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.

The Neuschwanstein Castle stands above Hohenschwangau near Füssen in the southeastern Bavarian Allgäu. The building was built in 1869 for the Bavarian King Ludwig II as an idealized idea of ​​a knight's castle from the Middle Ages. The designs are by Christian Jank, the execution was done by Eduard Riedel and Georg von Dollmann. The king lived only a few months in the castle, he died before the completion of the plant. Neuschwanstein was originally referred to as New Castle Hohenschwangau, it bears its present name since 1886. Owner of the castle is the Free State of Bavaria, it is supervised and managed by the Bavarian Administration of State Castles, Gardens and Lakes.Neuschwanstein is the most famous of the castles of Ludwig II and one of the most famous sights in Germany.

The architecture and interior design are characterized by the romantic eclecticism of the 19th century; The castle is considered a major work of historicism. A recording of the "Ludwig castles" Neuschwanstein, Linderhof and Herrenchiemsee in the list of World Heritage by UNESCO is sought.
