A wooden path leads you through a blooming meadow landscape – and directly to the venerable walls of the castle ruins. The view of the tower feels like a window into the Middle Ages, framed by green forest and tranquil nature. Standing here, you can sense history firsthand.

Tip: The path is slightly elevated and easy to walk on – ideal for photo opportunities, especially in the late afternoon with warm light.

A dream loop that could hardly be more fitting: The LandZeitTour near Morbach-Hinzerath combines tranquil nature with history and enjoyment. The start leads through gently rolling meadows filled with the scent of freshly mown hay. Later, a footbridge follows through the greenery, leading directly to the Baldenau Castle ruins.

The old moated castle is the undisputed highlight: surrounded by reeds, water, and old masonry, it creates an almost fairytale atmosphere. Those who take their time will discover many loving details – and a touch of a cinematic backdrop.

The route is pleasant to walk, well-marked, and offers many quiet moments – with views that allow the soul to breathe. There are plenty of benches, and the tour is also worthwhile for photography enthusiasts in every respect.

My conclusion: A leisurely tour with depth. Ideal for those who don't just want to cover distance but also want to experience the landscape. If you start early, you often have the paths all to yourself – and the castle almost exclusively.
