The castle offers sights from all perspectives, and a direct visit should also be considered. Then you can go straight down to Wolfsschlucht, the upper entrance is to the right of the castle entrance.

There's still a lot of water here and it's comforting to sit at the stone table and listen to the water. You sit wonderfully in the shade and can relax.

On Saturday we went to the Odenwald.

Between …

Beautiful tour in the Odenwald and along the Neckar. The 10km climb to the Mülbener and Roberner lakes was really worth it. The view of Zwingenberg Castle is also impressive.
