Nobody understands what our elevation profile was thinking. Otherwise, a very nice tour. The castle and its grounds are definitely worth a visit.

Also today in bright sunshine a relaxed tour between two world-famous sights. Stay a must!

The way there and back leads mainly on easily passable forest and forest roads through brightly colored autumn forest.

The route is very well signposted. Procedure almost impossible 😀

Just beautiful!
