    Tips

    On various maps at this point a camera icon is located. So, was curious, leave way short and, yes you already have a nice view of the castle and the valley. With increasing foliage of the trees, the view here, however, is quite limited.

      Nice view up to the castle and down in the valley the Selke murmurs, but be careful ☝❗, it's steeply downhill here on the edge and children in particular have to be particularly careful here. There is no railing ☝

                    The view of the valley is also beautiful from here.

                        Great view of Falkenstein Castle. There's a bank there now.
