イッツグルントの天然記念物・トップ20

The ruins have a very special character due to their construction – you can still really feel the connection between nature and medieval architecture.

Directly in front of the Rotenhan ruins there are two nice rest areas.

The Rotenhan castle ruins are one of the few genuine rock castles in Germany and the ancestral home of the important Rotenhan noble family. The ruins are one of Bavaria's most beautiful and impressive geotopes and are freely accessible.

The ruins of the high medieval rock castle Rotenhan are located at 380 m above sea level about two kilometers north of Ebern above the district of Eyrichshof in the Haßberge district in Lower Franconia. The castle complex is the ancestral seat of the Barons of Rotenhan, who still own it today. Wikipedia

The climb is a bit difficult, but you will be rewarded with a wonderful view.

The small detour to Spitzberg is highly recommended. You have a wonderful view here, which you can enjoy on a bench.

Small creatures called Querkele once lived in the Querkeles cave on the Staffelberg. They were helpful and kind to everyone. They were welcome guests with the people, because they did some work, helped with illnesses and knew advice for all difficult tasks.

A lot has already been said and written about Spitsbergen. This survey lives up to its name. Good shoes are strongly recommended for those who hike up and down this short path. Brisk walks in summer conditions are also possible with well-fitting "sneakers". But any ankle injured with ligament damage recommend high shoes and then ideally stepping on sideways. It can also get pretty muddy in wintry conditions. In the worst case ... the nearest orthopedic is in Lichtenfels ;-) And the seating area with a view "of the vast country" in front of the massive bushes has something "archaically majestic". However, the table shows clear "dissolution phenomena".
