View of Hohenbeilstein Castle

Highlight • Castle

The view of the Hohenbeilstein castle ruins is interesting from several places when you come from Wunnenstein or Forstkopf.
Here, in Beilstein at this parking lot on Winzerhausener Weg, you are pretty close and still have a clear view.

Wartkopf Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Depending on the position of the sun, this is the perfect place to take pictures of the vineyard, the castle and the Beilstein below. On site, a metal disc helps to identify the surrounding towns and mountains.

Helfenberg castle ruins

Highlight • Castle

From up here you have a good panoramic view of the area. Beneath the ruin there are benches where you can rest and the next castle is not far away, as is Lake Anna.
