    Nice view... it's only 200 meters off the path, but it goes down a good bit and then up again

      Simply fantastically beautiful, you shouldn't miss the 4 Castles Trail.

        A short, approximately 200 meter long detour away from the Dimbacher Buntsandsteinweg.
        It goes down a bit steeply and you have to go up again ;-)
        You have a view over the Dimbach valley.
        Since the entire tour is relatively strenuous, I recommend skipping the Kaftenstein and instead considering a detour to the interesting 4-castle view just before the Rötzenfelsen.
