Hiking
This should locate the five castles (from right to left: Katz Castle, Reichenberg Castle ruins, Maus Castle, and the "Feinliche Brüder" with the castles of Liebenstein and Sterrenberg) in a panorama.
I once attached an unofficial version ;o)
The castle ruins of Reichenberg are located in the hinterland near Sankt Goarshausen, the others are all directly on the Rhine.
In any case, you have a wide view of the slopes of the Taunus on the Middle Rhine.

I created the highlight in October and then somehow disappeared, along with my comment.
