    The rocky outcrops of dolomitic rock, which offers strong nesting opportunities for jackdaws and kestrels, connects a narrow ridge with the hinterland. From the former castle "Neuenstein" is still carved into the rock, about 3 meters deep neck trench recognizable. Possibly, the cracks and cavities under the rock plateau were included in the castle. A rock gate further down (remainder of a cave) offers a magnificent view of the Gungoldinger juniper heath.

      Neuenstein Castle was a nascent rock castle in the Altmühl Valley in the area of what is today the municipality of Walting in the Upper Bavarian district of Eichstätt, located between the Walther district of Gungolding and the Kipfenberg district of Arnsberg.
