    Hiking

    Laufenburg is a wonderful place. Walk over the bridge - the place is located on the Swiss side and is within walking distance via a steep rise in stairs, or comfortably to reach with slight slope on paths. The castle can be climbed from 6 to 20 hours. A dream view of the Rhine and the surrounding countryside and the city is guaranteed in good weather 👍

    Hiking

    The former ancestral seat of the Counts of Habsburg-Laufenburg fell into ruins during the Thirty Years' War; only the keep remains. But even from here you can still enjoy a wonderful view over Laufenburg and the Rhine.
