Very steep, sometimes narrow, many steps – generally safe – but certainly easier going up than down. Magnificent views with a ridge walk – if you make it to the top.

The path is spectacular when fog blankets all of central Switzerland, right up to the Alps! There's a natural barrier separating the fog-covered side from the sunny side. An easy path, accessible to everyone.

Mint is already very diverse, but 108 different types at 1028 meters above sea level surprised me.

This information board on the hilltop not only provides a wealth of interesting information about the Alt Bechburg ruins, but also vividly illustrates how the double castle is constructed and what was located where. The cool thing about it is that from this perspective, you can compare the floor plan on the board at eye level with the original.

The Alt Bechburg castle ruins are a worthwhile destination. The view from its walls is truly picturesque, enhancing the already medieval scenery. Several barbecue areas are available within the castle grounds, so barbecue fun is guaranteed. But beware! Entering Alt Bechburg is at your own risk. ⚠️ A sign right at the entrance specifically points this out. And rightly so! As inconspicuous as Alt Bechburg may appear at first glance, there are countless places where there is an acute danger of slipping and falling. The rear part of the complex, in particular, tempts you to explore, but has no safety measures. Particular caution is advised at the so-called "Felsentor" (rock gate). This is a passage through the rear castle wall, followed by a small square landing, from which a steep staircase once led down the rock into the depths. This ledge has no railing. Anyone careless (e.g., trying to take a spectacular photo or curiously peering into the depths) could fall. Weathered and broken steps at this spot also tempt curious explorers of the outer wall at the rear. Parents who want to spend an adventurous time with their children at Bechburg Castle should keep a very close eye on them. Otherwise, Alt Bechburg is a real eye-catcher (with its pitfalls) and a worthwhile destination at any time of year.

Ideal resting place with fire pit: carry barbecue food in your backpack!

It's really steep! Be careful when descending.
