A highlight on the Fritz-Wunderlich cycle path is of course the castle Lichtenberg. A trip there (though a very arduous climb) is a must on this tour.

Lichtenberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Very nicely laid out area - can apparently also be rented for weddings - the driveway to the castle is moderate - relatively constant incline to the castle
