    Beautiful path up to the castle ruins

    Hiking

    This section is called the "Snake Trail" by locals. A weathered sign at both the lower and upper entrances indicates this. The trail winds its way up the mountain in a serpentine fashion, so you don't feel the elevation gain on your thighs as much as you would on the way up to the plateau.
