Very nice barbecue area with a view of the castle. In summer, the view of the castle can be limited by the foliage on the trees.

Highlight • Viewpoint

With the Reussenstein ruins in the foreground, it's a very beautiful picture. And when it's quiet, you can hear the rushing of the river in the valley from above.
