February 18, 2024,Schloss Eyrichshof - Burgruine Gutenfels - Burg Lichtenstein
On the way back to Middle Franconia we took another walk around the Haßberge Nature Park; started at Eyrichshof Castle (there are always open air events there) and went quite steep and muddy to the Rotenhan castle ruins. Then continue on the panoramic path with a view to Banz Monastery, the Gutenfels castle ruins and on to the Lichtenstein castle …

Caution!
We got lost at the end of the tour, DO NOT imitate it !!!
Because ... with us it means: it is not the other way around, so we went through the thick wood and took pretty much all the nettles and thorns that blocked our way 🙈🙈😂😂😂
Just keep your eyes open towards the end of the tour …
