Beautifully situated in the middle of the forest and on the Asdorf cycle path

Nice trail, you have to be careful because it's quite narrow in places.

The trail is partly very narrow along the fence at the bottom, you have to be careful not to get caught with the handlebars.

I had asked friendly and was allowed to look at the castle courtyard. And since I have a DJH ID, I was also given the opportunity to buy a drink.

There is a lot to look at, so make sure you take your time to browse around.

Located right on the bike path. From here you can drive up to Katzwinkel to the glider airport.

The complex, which was still preserved and inhabited around 1830, was used as a quarry in the late 19th century, which is why it is largely in ruins today. The hilltop castle stands on a mountain spur that slopes steeply on three sides; it thus dominated the past Bergische Eisenstrasse, later named Hileweg in 1048. In addition to the walls, the more than 20-meter-high, round donjon, which has a Baroque dome and is partially slated, and building remains from the 14th to 18th centuries and a polygonal bastion from the 15th / 16th centuries have been preserved.

Junkernthal Castle, still the residence of the Barons von Hövel, is part of Wingendorf's district. The entire complex with the large villa, which probably dates from the middle of the 19th century, various outbuildings such as the forester's house, the castle park with the old trees and the baroque garden pavilion, the family cemetery and the bridge over the Asdorfer Bach is a listed building. The castle complex also includes the Freiherr von Hövelsche Rentei, also known as the Old Rentei, on the opposite side of the Asdorfer Bach in the district of Freusburg, which served as a kind of outer bailey. Junkernthal Castle is privately owned and can only be viewed from the outside. There is no information about the original appearance of the late medieval noble seat; nor are any remains of the old buildings preserved. Some of the farm buildings, such as a brewery with a mansard roof, are still preserved, as is the gatehouse from 1742 and the pigeon house with a pagoda roof. A baroque pavilion directly on the Asdorfer Bach has also been preserved. Today's manor house was built above the stream in 1864. Source: https://www.ich-geh-wandern.de/wehbach
